Do You Think That I Do Not Know - Slim Dusty[00:00:00]

Written by：Slim Dusty/Henry Lawson[00:00:01]

They say that I never have written of love[00:00:08]

As a writer of songs should do[00:00:12]

They say that I never could touch the strings[00:00:15]

With a touch that is firm and true[00:00:19]

They say I know nothing of women and men[00:00:23]

In the fields where love's roses grow[00:00:27]

I must write they say with a haunting pen[00:00:30]

Do you think that I do not know[00:00:34]

My love burst came like an english spring[00:00:38]

In the days when our hair was brown[00:00:42]

And the hem of her shirt was a sacred thing[00:00:45]

And her hair was an angel's crown[00:00:49]

The shock when another man touched her arm[00:00:53]

Where the dancer sat in a row'[00:00:56]

The hope and despair and the false alarm[00:01:00]

Do you think that I do not know[00:01:04]

By the amber lights on the western farms[00:01:08]

You remember the question you put[00:01:11]

While you held her warm in your quavering arms[00:01:15]

And you trembled from head to foot[00:01:19]

The electric shock from her fingertips[00:01:22]

And the murmuring answer low[00:01:26]

The soft shy yielding of warm red lips[00:01:30]

Do you think that I do not know[00:01:34]

She was buried at brighton where gordon sleeps[00:01:45]

When I was a world away[00:01:49]

And the sad old garden it's secret keeps[00:01:52]

For nobody knows today[00:01:56]

She left a message for me to read[00:02:00]

Where the wild wide oceans flow[00:02:03]

Do you know how the heart of a man can bleed[00:02:07]

Do you think that I do not know[00:02:11]

I stood by the grave where the dead girl lies[00:02:15]

When the sunlit scene was fair[00:02:18]

'Neath the white clouds high in the autumn skies[00:02:22]

I answered the message there[00:02:26]

But the haunting words of the dead to me[00:02:29]

Shall go wherever I go[00:02:33]

She lives in the marriage that might have been[00:02:37]

Do you think that I do not know[00:02:41]

Do you think that I do not know[00:02:44]
