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
Who 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.
No, 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 that you might have loved me, too.
You give your hand to me and then you say goodbye
I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy
And you will never know the one who loves you so,
No, you don't know me.
