"Know by Now" ist ein Song von Robert Palmer, der von den Höhen und Tiefen einer Beziehung handelt. Der Text reflektiert...

You oughta know by now

Baby, when our hearts awoke
Think of all the rules we broke
In the name of love we hoped
Little did we know
Darling, all the time we spent
Ignoring all the consequences
And hiding from the evidence
Hoping things would change

But the yearning grew like the loneliness of a castaway
To be near to you was the only thing in my heart each day
Keeping me alive 'til your rescue came
Honey, you mean everything to me

(CHORUS:)
You oughta know by now
Love means everything
Oh, you oughta know by now
Only love can bring happiness

Wishful thinking spent in vain
HWat to lose and what to gain
All the guilt and all the blame
Seemed to come our way
Baby, when our hearts awoke, oh oh
Think of all the rules we broke
In the name of love we spoke
Little did we know

But the hope was there like a ray of sun on a cloudy day
And it changed from impossibility to the only way
Love can conquer all and it's here to stay
Honey, you mean everything to me

(CHORUS x2)

You oughta know by now
You oughta know by now
You oughta know by now
You oughta know by now
