I KNEW RIGHT AWAY
(Alma Cogan / Stan Foster)


Alma Cogan - 1964



I knew right away that you'd break my heart
I knew right away at the very start
You asked me to dance and you told me
You would see me tonight and you'd hold me
Had a feeling that you were lyin'
And now I know I was right
I knew it
 
I knew right away I'd be left alone
I felt such a fool waitin' on my own
All my friends said I'd end up without you
Didn't need them to tell me about you
Fell in love and I had to pay
But I knew right away
 
I knew right away that you'd break my heart
I knew right away at the very start
You asked me to dance and you told me
You would hold me tonight, yes you'd hold me
Had a feeling that you were lyin'
And now I know I was right
I knew it
 
I knew right away I'd be left alone
I felt such a fool waitin' on my own
All my friends said I'd end up without you
Didn't need them to tell me about you
Fell in love and I had to pay
But I knew right away
 
Fell in love and I had to pay
But I knew right away
Fell in love and I had to pay
But I knew right away


TRIVIA: 
It has often been stated that Paul McCartney played tambourine 
on this recording, but, according to David Gooch, the record's producer, this is not so.
