You Don't Know Me

You give your hand to me, and then you say hello,
And 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,
Longs to kiss your lips, longs to hold you tight,
Oh, I am just a friend, that's all I've ever been, cause you don't know me.
I never knew the art of making love, tho 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, then you say goodbye, 
I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy, 
Oh, you will never know the one who loves you so, well 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,
Oh you will never know the one who loves you so,
Cause you don't know me.
Oh you don't know me.
You don't know me.
