even when the love's gone,
and don't I show it
even when your love comes
baby, don't I know it
(repeat 3x)
 
even when the love's gone,
don't I show it
and even when the light's on,
there's something wrong, and don't I know it
 
and you don't have to tell me nothing
'cause you know that you've already shown it
and even when you're good and strong
the feeling's gone, and don't I know it
 
even when the love is gone,
the night turns, she can try to show it
oh why, why, oh, why, why, don't I know it?
oh why, why, oh, why, why, don't I show it?
 
Don't I know it?
Oh, why, why, don't I show it? Don't I show it?
