You Don't Know Me
Unseen Longings: You Don't Know Me
Lyrics
You give your hand to me
You offer your hand to me.
And then you say, "Hello."
Then you greet me with a "Hello."
And I can hardly speak,
I struggle to articulate; my heart is racing.
My heart is beating so.
The intensity of my heartbeat is pronounced.
And anyone can tell
It's evident to everyone.
You think you know me well.
You believe you understand me deeply.
Well, you don't know me.
Contrary to your belief, you truly don't know me.
(no you don't know me)
(No, you don't know me)
No you don't know the one
You are unaware of the person
Who dreams of you at night;
Who envisions you in their dreams;
And longs to kiss your lips
Yearning to touch your lips
And longs to hold you tight
And longing to embrace you closely.
Oh I'm just a friend.
I am merely a friend,
That's all I've ever been.
That's my sole designation.
Cause you don't know me.
Because, in reality, you don't know me.
(no you don't know me)
(No, you don't know me)
For I never knew the art of making love,
I never grasped the skill of making love,
Though my heart aches with love for you.
Although my heart throbs with love for you.
Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by.
Fearful and reserved, I allowed my opportunity to slip away.
A chance that you might love me too.
A chance that you might reciprocate my love.
(love me too)
(Love me too)
You give your hand to me,
You extend your hand,
And then you say, "Goodbye."
Then bid me farewell.
I watched you walk away,
I observe you leaving,
Beside the lucky guy
Alongside the fortunate man.
Oh, you'll never ever know
You will never comprehend
The one who loved you so.
The one who loved you intensely.
Well, you don't know me
Truly, you don't know me
(For I never knew the art of making love, )
(For I never knew the art of making love,)
(Though my heart aches with love for you. )
(Though my heart aches with love for you.)
Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by.
Apprehensive and reserved, I let my opportunity slip away.
A chance that you might love me too.
A chance that you might reciprocate my love.
(love me too)
(Love me too)
Oh, you give your hand to me,
Oh, you extend your hand to me,
And then you say, "Goodbye."
And then utter a "Goodbye."
I watched you walk away,
I witness you departing,
Beside the lucky guy
Next to the fortunate man.
Oh, you'll never ever know
You will never truly understand
The one who loved you so.
The one who loved you so deeply.
Well, you don't know me
Indeed, you don't know me
(you don't love me, you don't know me)
(You don't love me, you don't know me)
