"I Can Tell" lyrics

"I Can Tell"

I can tell by the sun the time of the day
I can tell by the moon when you go away
But I can tell when I'm holding you there must be someone new
There's a love another love I can tell I'm losing you

I can tell by the moon why you come back each time
If I could reach the stars I'd know your love was never mine
But I can tell by your kisses that it won't be very long
That you'll break my heart again I can feel it coming on

I can tell right from wrong I can tell night from day
When you're on my mind when you're away
But I can tell when I'm holding you there's no love in your heart
And it won't be very long that once again we'll be apart

I can tell by the sun the time of the day
I can tell by the moon just when you just go away
But I can tell by your kisses there must be someone new
There's a love another love for I feel I'm losing you

But I can tell by your kisses that it won't be very long
That you'll break my heart again I can feel it coming on
