He's a good man
And he's always been right there by her side
Through thich and thin
She can count on him
He's given her a real good life

He never missed a valentines day
The roses are right on time
And he never walks out of the house
Without kissing her good-bye

But a woman knows
When she's lying awake at night
Where her man goes
When he's out of her sight
There's no way to explain
How she knows what she knows
She don't let it show, but a woman knows

He still holds her close at night
Still feels like making love
But something about it
Just don't seem to feel the way it was
He still says 'I love you'
Still tuckin' the kids in bed
It's nothing that he's done
It's nothing that he's said
But a woman knows
When she's lying awake at night
Where her man goes
When he's out of her sight
There's no way to explain
How she knows what she knows
She don't let it show, but a woman knows

And she'll stay with him no matter what she chooses not to see
'Cause to her it's all about the family
And she's got at least a hundred reasons not to leave
'Cause he's almost everything she's dreamed

But a woman knows
When she's lying awake at night
Where her man goes
When he's out of her sight
There's no way to explain
How she knows what she knows
