Does He Know
One Direction · Midnight Memories [2013]
He knows about you in every way
He's memorized every part of your face
Inside and out, baby, head to toe
Yeah, he knows everything there is to know
Harry:
Your secret tattoo, the way you change moods
The songs that you sing when you're all alone
Your favorite band, the way that you dance
But baby, baby
Chorus (All):
Does he know you can move it like that?
Woah-oh
Does he know your out and I want you so bad
Woah-oh
Zayn: Tonight, you're mine, baby
All: Does he know that you'll never go back?, oh
Does he know?
Liam:
I catch your eye then you turn away
But there's no hiding the smile on your face
Inside and out, baby, head to toe
He's not around, girl, you let me know
Niall:
Your secret tattoo, the way you change moods
The songs that you sing when you're all alone
He knows how you dance in front of your friends
But baby, baby
Chorus (All):
Does he know you can move it like that?
Woah-oh
Does he know your out and I want you so bad
Woah-oh
Zayn: Tonight, you're mine, baby
Chorus (All): Does he know that you'll never go back?, oh
Does he know?
Louis:
He'll never know
The way you lie when you look at me
So keep trying but you know I see
All the little things that who make you who you are
So tell me girl
Liam:
Does he know you can move it like that?
Does he know that you'll never go back?, woah
Chorus (All):
Does he know you can move it like that?
Woah-oh
Does he know your out and I want you so bad
Woah-oh
Zayn: Tonight, you're mine, baby
Chorus (All): Does he know that you'll never go back?
Does he know?
