DISCOGRAPHY - "SUNNY BONUS" - LYRICS
IF I DIDN’T KNOW HER BETTER
If I didn’t know her better
I would swear she was someone else
With a brand new strange demeanor
Unrelated to herself
The change crept into her slowly
Like the shades of Dorian Grey
Til one morning we awakened
And I found she slipped away
I’d swear she was a stranger
If I didn’t know her any better
I never tried to change her
Now it’s for the best that I forget her
If I didn’t know her better
I wouldn’t recognize her now
For she has no love inside her
It’s been drained from her somehow
Ain’t no personal vendetta
Ain’t no judgment call at all
There’s no guarantee or shelf-life
From the moment that you fall
I’d swear she was a stranger
If I didn’t know her any better
I never tried to change her
But now it’s for the best that I forget her
Bridge:
Once she was a true friend of mine
Someone I could always count on
And I thought she felt the same way that I did
Now I don’t know who I’m facing
Someone who is fading fast love’s gone
And I don’t know where she has it hid
If I didn’t know her better
I would bet we never were
In the throes of our commitment
Did it actually occur?
I’d swear she was a stranger
If I didn’t know her any better
I never tried to change her
Now it’s for the best that I forget her
Forget all about her, yeah it’s best to forget her, yeah
If I didn’t know her better
I would swear she was someone else
With a brand new strange demeanor
Unrelated to herself
The change crept into her slowly
Like the shades of Dorian Grey
Til one morning we awakened
And I found she slipped away
I’d swear she was a stranger
If I didn’t know her any better
I never tried to change her
Now it’s for the best that I forget her
If I didn’t know her better
I wouldn’t recognize her now
For she has no love inside her
It’s been drained from her somehow
Ain’t no personal vendetta
Ain’t no judgment call at all
There’s no guarantee or shelf-life
From the moment that you fall
I’d swear she was a stranger
If I didn’t know her any better
I never tried to change her
But now it’s for the best that I forget her
