You don’t know me
You can only say my name
Pictures of me paint
I can not say
I’m only till business to you
Some sort of silly fool
Fool that I am, I forgive you

Because I love you
'Cause I don’t know where to begin
To say the words you need me to say

You don’t know me
Not like you think that you do
Not thinking of me
I’m thinking of you
So just let me say these few words
From the very pit of my heart
Troublesome faith that we are

You know that I love you
From the moment I laid eyes on you
Can’t we find a new place to start

You don’t know me, that’s all I have to say
As my understanding drifts away

Because I love you
Belly to belly and skin to skin
My heart is open
Now won’t you please come in
You don’t know me
You don’t know me
You don’t know me
At all
