Lyrics for You Don't Know

You give your hand to me 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 No, you don't know the one Who dreams of you at night And longs to kiss your lips And longs to hold you tight Oh, I'm just a friend That's all I've ever been 'Cause you don't know me I never knew The art of makin' love Though my heart aches with love for you Afraid and shy I've let my chance goes 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 Well You don't know me You give your hand to me, baby Then you say "Goodbye" I watch you walk away Beside the lucky guy No, no, you'll never, ever know The one who loves you so Well You don't know me
