It is one of the songs from "The First Album" that gets away from the initial idea Madonna had of this song. If you read the lyrics, you may think it's going to be a sad ballad. But the music it has is completely different. It is maybe, the song from that record in which we can clearly see that the producers wanted to make a dance album, no matter the lyric content of the songs.

lyric
I Know It

I don't know why I thought
That I could make you happy
These tears I cry for you
Are so hopeless, yeah
I don't know why I thought
That we were going somewhere
But you grabbed your coat
And you were out the door
And now I know you don't care

I know you're gonna take your love and run
I know you think I'm the foolish one
I know you're gonna turn around and say goodbye

I used to think
You were my pretty angel comin' down
Well now you've just proven me wrong
What about the letters we have written
All the things we've said and done
I'll just stand here
While you count the battles you have won

I know you're gonna take your love and run
I know you think I'm the foolish one
I know you're gonna turn around and say goodbye

But I'm not gonna cry for you
'Cause that's what you want me to do
No I'm not gonna cry for you anymore

I know you're gonna take your love and run
I know you think I'm the foolish one
I know you're gonna turn around and say goodbye

Take your love and run from me
Is this the way love's supposed to be
You don't think that I can see
But you can't fool me

But I'm not gonna cry for you
'Cause that's what you want me to do
No I'm not gonna cry for you anymore

I know you're gonna take your love and run
I know you think I'm the foolish one
I know you're gonna turn around and say goodbye
