It Doesn't Know Any Better

Jim Ed Brown and the Browns · Gems By Jim [RCA Victor] [1967]

(J. Kyle)



I should break these habits before very long

Like calling to see if you're home

But my hand just can't help reaching out for the phone

It doesn't know any better.



I've cautioned my heart not to hope anymore

That you won't be around like before

Still it stops everytime there's a knock on your door

It doesn't know any better.



I still can't believe that you're gone

Though I've tried

My senses got lost in

The turmoil inside.



And my love keeps raging though your love has died

It doesn't know any better

And my life goes on there's just one reason why

It doesn't know any better...
