David Gates Diary Lyrics

I found her dairy 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

They said that she had found
The love she've waited for
Wouldn't you know it
She wouldn't show it

Then she confronted with her writing there
Simply pretended not to care
I passed it off as just in keeping with
Her total disconcertedness

An 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 dairy underneath the tree
And started reading about me
The words begun to stick to tears to flow
Her meaning now is clear to see

The love she've 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 they can find
