You Ought to Know - Then Jerico

You ought to know by now

Hey!

You ought to know by now

Someone you knew before

Was fool enough to take their chance with you

But I know

Well I could have told you so

In spite of all I’ve learned, I still

Found out that woman used me

Ooh it was a long time ago

I’m still in the shadow

Of your laughter

It’s commonplace

In this kind of life

With all the good times

That I wasted

I’m sure to find

That it comes to light

The tears you cry alone

Are so private

I know they burn, don’t they?

Yeah!

Ooh and the shadow of your love

So warm at night I still found out

That’s not the answer
