You Don't Know Me Lyrics & Tabs by Denice Franke
You Don't Know Me
guitar chords lyrics
You don't know me
You can't see me
You don't want to hear the words
I'm sayin'
And that's the way it goes
when families get too close
they get a glimpse of something far
too frightening to hold
Yes we wear our masks
We keep them quite intact
and we don't want to know who's
behind those faces
We harbor and conceal
what severed nerves reveal
asking much of one person to feel alone
We harbor and conceal
what severed nerves reveal
asking much of one person to feel alone
I was once your child
and you were all I had
and I was all you thought you
ever wanted
But choices take their toll
you learn what you're told
and you are getting older...
so am I
I'm a light sleeper
I'm a heart breaker
I'm a singer in the stormy lights
But I have found my home
safer than the womb
that I screamed and grieved from
I come as no surprise
you probably realized
I'm a lover of the woman kind
I offer no regrets
you cannot take me back
to the place where you once held
all control
you want control
You don't know me
You can't see me
You don't want to hear the words
I'm sayin'
And that's the way it goes
when families get too close
they get a glimpse of something far
too frightening to hold
frightening to hold...
you are getting older...
so am I
