| Title:You Don't Know Me Artist: Ray Charles - Contributor:Webmaster | |
You give your hand to me And then you say hello I can hardly speak My heart is beating so And anyone can tell You think you know me well But you don't know me Oh you don't know the one That thinks of you at night Who longs to kiss your lips And yearns to squeeze you tight No I'm just a friend That's all I've ever been You just don't know me I never knew the art of making love Though my heart aches with love for you Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by The chance that you might love me too You give your hand to me And then you say goodbye I watch you walk away Beside the lucky guy You'll never, never know The one who loves you so You just don't know me I never knew the art of making love Though my heart aches with love for you Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by The chance that you might love me too You give your hand to me And then you say goodbye I watch you walk away Beside the lucky guy Who'll never, never know The one who loves you so You just don't know me You'll never, ever know mmmm, cause you just don't know me | |
