Lyrics

They Don't Know You

James B. Twitty

Theyve been givin me cliche's and lines like: All is vain, and love is blind
and how could a woman like you love a man like me,
They keep sayin things like fools rush in, that beauty doesnt go deeper than skin,
But all these sayings, they dont apply to me,

Cause they dont know you, and they dont love you
They never saw your eyes when the tears came melting through,
They never held you, they never fell for you
And they dont miss you, but I do

They say,absence helps the heart, and its such sweet sorrow when you have to part,
That all good things must one day come to an end.
They say, its better to love and lose, and you live and learn, and you pay your dues,
Then you pick yourself back up and you try again,

they didnt tease you, they didnt leave you,
Theyre not down on their knees, beggin you to take'm back
They dont know you, they never kissed you baby,
They dont need you, but I do,

And after alls been said and done, hey babe I bet you know I'm not the only one,
Just to pack up all my bags and head it on down the road,
I had to find out who I am, and I'm a lonely boy that wants to be your man,
And if you take me back, we'll show them what they don't know

And they dont know you, they dont breathe you
They dont wake up in the middle of the night and call your name
Theyre not lonely, theyre not dyin,
They dont miss you honey, but I do

They dont need you baby, but I do,
They dont need you, but I do
