You give your hand to me
And you say hello
And I can hardly speak
My heart is beating so
Anyone could tell
You think you know me well
But you don't know me
Oh, you don't know the one
Who dreams of you at night
Who longs to kiss your lips
And hold you tight
Oh, I'm just a friend
That's all I've ever been
'Cause you don't know me
Oh, 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
The chance that you might love me too
You give your hand to me
Then you say goodbye
I watch you walk away
You're such a lucky guy
But I'm just a friend
That's all I've ever been
'Cause you don't know me
Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by
The chance that you might love me too
You give your hand to her
Then you say goodbye
I watch you walk away, oh
You are such a lucky guy
You'll never, never know
The one who loves you so
'Cause you don't know me
