 I  found her diary underneath  the tree and  started reading about me
 The  words she^?d written took  me by surprise;  you^?d never read them in
 her eyes.
She  said that she  had found the love  she^?d waited  for
 Wouldn^?t  you know  it? She  wouldn^?t show  it
 Then  she, confronted with the writing  there, simply  pretended not to
 care
 I  passed it off as just in keeping  with her  total disconcerting air.
And  though she tried  to hide the love  that she  denied
 Wouldn^?t  you know  it? She  wouldn^?t show  it.
   And  as I go  through  my life
   I will  give to her, my  wife
   All the sweet things  I can find.
 I  found her diary underneath  the tree and  started reading about me
 The  words began to stick, then tears  to fall. Her  meaning now was clear
 to see
The  love she^?d waited  for was someone  else,  not me.
 Wouldn^?t  you know  it? She  wouldn^?t show  it.
   And  as I go  through  my life
   I will  wish for her, his  wife
   All the sweet things  she can find
   All the sweet  things  she can find.
