You Don't Know Me
(Cindy Walker, Eddy Arnold)

You give your hand to me
And then you say hello
And I can hardly speak
My heart is beating so
And anyone could 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
To you I'm just a friend
That's all I've ever been
But you don't know me

For I never knew the art of making love
Though my heart ached with love for you
Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by
The chance you might ever love me, too

You give your hand to me
And then you say goodbye
I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy
To never, never know
The one who loves you so
No, you don't know me

You give your hand to me
And then you say goodbye
I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy
To never, never know
The one who loves you so
No, you don't know me
