With apologies to Elvis Presley and Nat King Cole:
You gave your hand to me
When we first said, "Hello."
And I could hardly speak,
My heart was beating so.
And anyone could tell
You thought you knew me well.
But, you don't know me.
(no 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 more than a friend.
That's what I've always been.
But you don't know me.
(no you don't know me)
Though I once knew the art of making love,
And now my heart aches with love for you.
Afraid and shy, I’ve let my chance go by.
A chance that you might love me too.
(love me too)
You gave your hand to me,
And then you said, "Goodbye."
I watched you walk away,
Beside the lucky guy
Oh, you'll never ever know
The one who loves you so.
Well, you don't know me
(Though I once I knew the art of making love, )
(And now my heart aches with love for you. )
Afraid and shy, I’ve let my chance go by.
A chance that you might love me too.
(love me too)
Oh, you gave your hand to me,
And then you said, "Goodbye."
I watched you walk away,
Beside the lucky guy
I hope you’ll always know,
The one who loves you so.
Though, you don't know me
(you don't love me, you don't know me)
