Syl Johnson - You Don't Know Me

You give your hand to me
And then you say, "hello"
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 me)
No you don't know the one
Who dreams of you each night
And longs to kiss your lips
Longs to hold you tight
Oh I'm just a friend
That's all I've ever been
(You don't know me)
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 might love me too

No you don't know the one
Who dreams of you at night
And longs to kiss your lips
Longs to hold you tight
Oh I'm just a friend
That's all I've ever been
But you don't know me
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
I let my chance, my chance go by
You might love me too

No you don't know the one
Who dreams of you at night
And longs to kiss your lips
And just wanna hold you tight
Oh anyone can tell
You think you know me well
But you don't know me
You don't know me

Oh anyone can tell
You think you know me well
You don't know me
You don't know me
