Lyrics How Could I Know - Raul Seixas

How Could I Know

It brings me sadness just remembering getting home
From a tiring day of work, she would hold me very tight
And kiss me tenderly
We sat while, and she’d tell me all the news:
How she took the kids to school and she found them at the zoo
Thorowing peanuts to the bears…
Oh, this remembrance keeps reflecting on my mind:
When the days ran calm and fine
And I had her by my side
Swearing love eternally
But, hey!
How could I know
Love was to go after all this time?
Hey!
How could I see
She would leave me after all this time?
Little by little our sky was getting darker
Our dreams were running farther
Our smiles becoming harder, in the distance of us two
Our loving glaces very rarely they were meeting
We were always, always fleeing
From a love we felt was ending, still we never said a word
But, hey!
How could I know
Love was to go after all this time?
Hey!
How could I see
She would leave me after this time?
Then one fine morning with a torn and acking heart
We decided we should part, for it was late ro restart
A love that never was…
I still can picture: you were standing at the railing
Saw your taxi that was waiting
Held a tear when you were waving your very last good-bye
The kids were with me as your taxi drove away
I had nothing more to say
So I put them all to sleep…
