You Don't Know Me

Ray Charles · Ray Charles: The Jazz Piano Legend [2010]

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

And 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



I never knew the art of making love

Though my heart aches with love for you

Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by

A 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

I know you'll never know

The one who loves you so

Well, you don't know me



But I never knew the art of making love

Though my heart aches with love for you

Afraid and shy, and I let your chance go by

The chance that you might love me too



You give your hand to me

And then you say goodbye

And then I watch you walk away

Beside the lucky guy

Oh you'll never, ever know

The one who loves you so

No, you don't know me



I said, you'll never, ever know

The one who loves you so

Cause you don't know me

No, you don't know me
