"Maybe Everyone Knows" lyrics

"Maybe Everyone Knows"

Everyone knows him, the man about town
Wearing a smile and he never gets down
He says he loved her when he first saw her
And he wants to love her a little longer
Whenever you ask him, he tells you he's fine
Strolls into work at a quarter to nine
But deep in the pages of his life's story
He wants a moment to say he's sorry

Oh, maybe everyone knows
Maybe everyone knows that he's walking the line
And he puts on a show through the day and the night
Oh, maybe everyone knows
Maybe everyone knows that he's tryna be fine
But he's always alone through the day and the night
Maybe everyone knows
Maybe everyone knows

She tries on the clothes and she gives them a twirl
'Cause anything goes for a confident girl
Like a photograph, smiling is how you'll find her
But she's never leaving the past behind her

Oh, maybe everyone knows
Maybe everyone knows that she's walking the line
But she puts on a show through the day and the night
Oh, maybe everyone knows
Maybe everyone knows that she's tryna be fine
But she's always alone through the day and the night
Maybe everyone knows

This is the story of hard luck people
Both of them guarding their long-held secrets
Everyone knows that star-crossed lovers
Wherever they go have to hold each other

Oh, maybe everyone knows
Maybe everyone knows that he's walking the line
But he puts on a show through the day and the night
Oh, maybe everyone knows
Maybe everyone knows that she's tryna be fine
But she's always alone through the day and the night
Maybe everyone knows
Maybe everyone knows

Maybe everyone knows
