Music and lyrics by Kimon Kirk and Aimee Mann

lyrics

So let’s assume you’ve ended up right where you wanna be
You sure surprised us by your choice
Who would’ve thought that he could find the words to hold you sway
With such an uncompelling voice

Baby who knows, nobody knows, maybe you knew and just forgot
Baby who knows, maybe you chose someone because of what they’re not
Baby who knows, baby who knows, baby who knows

We turned a blind eye to the things you didn’t see in him
Hoping he would change what’s wrong
You failed to mention your accepting mediocrity
Met your expectations all along

Baby who knows, nobody knows, maybe you knew and just forgot
Baby who knows, maybe you chose someone because of what they’re not
Baby who knows, baby who knows, baby who knows

Still, it’s a comfort to be near you in a smaller way
Those grapes turned sour long ago
Now that I realize the bar for you was set to high
I won’t let disappointment show

So now it’s come to where the roles have all but been reversed
And complication holds its ground
He’s right for you and yet you feel as though it’s too rehearsed
But could your logic be unsound

Baby who knows, nobody knows, maybe you knew and just forgot
Baby who knows, maybe you chose someone because of what they’re not
Baby who knows, baby who knows, baby who knows
