I Don't Know You - Gregory Isaacs

It's the right time, you know I feel fine tonight (I don't know why you don't want me) It's the right place, I've got my new face tonight (I don't know why you don't want me) I'm in the right mood, I've got my new shoes tonight (I don't know why you don't want me) I've got my new dress, I couldn't hurt less tonight (I don't know why you don't want me) Somebody told you I was so cold and mean (who was that talking) Somebody wants you and don't want me in between (she better start walking) Somebody hurt you but, baby, she wasn't me We'll find a new name for such an old game tonight (I don't know why you don't want me) I'll show you how long that I can go on tonight (I don't know why you don't want me) I don't know why you don't want me Just when I think that I can make it without you You come 'round and say you want me now You tell me don't leave and I want to believe you Why can't you see just how much I need you Somebody told you I was so cold and mean (who was that talking) Somebody wants you and don't want me in between (she better start walking) Somebody hurt you but, baby, she wasn't me Oh, it's the last chance for a romance tonight (I don't know why you don't want me) There'll be no next time if you won't be mine tonight (I don't know why you don't want me) I don't know why you don't want me (I don't know why you don't want me) I don't know why you don't want me (I don't know why you don't want me) I don't know why you don't want me (I don't know why you don't want me)

Oh baby, I gotta go I gotta leave These leaves are falling Falling down from the trees Is there something in the air around springtime When the birds and the bees are buzzing They fly so high but I'm feelin so low Oh oh I don't know you, I don't know you (I don't know I don't know) And you don't know me Oh babe, I gotta go I gotta leave These leaves are falling Falling down from the trees It wasn't something that you said It was the way that you looked when you said it You looked at me and I could not forget it There was a lie in your eye I could cry wonder Why do I try? Here comes the pain I don't know you, I don't know you (I don't know, I don't know) And you don't know me Oh no, am I doing it again? Am I doing it again? Oh no, am I doing it again? Am I doing it again? Am I doing it again? Oh no, am I doing it again? Am I doing it again? Am I doing it again? Oh no, I don't know, I don't know I don't know, I don't know I don't know!

Name now You don't even know my name now You don't even know my name now You don't even know my name All of my things packed in a bag I never really thought I'd see the day when All of my thoughts that I ever had But now I can't find the words to say All of the talks, the good and the bad Now I'm running far, far, far away 'Cause you never thought that I had a chance And we know that you weren't too shy to say it And you know I'd hate to tell your mother Guess you're not her angel after all And I'd hate to tell your best friends But I got a feeling that they already know Name now You don't even know my name now You don't even know my name now You don't even know my name (you don't even know my name) Know my name now You don't even know my name now You don't even know my name now You don't even know my name And you had it all in the palm of your hand But you never really tried it all the same Remember it all, lost all that we had Now I know that I'm better off just taking All of my things packed in a bag 'Cause now I'm running far, far, far away 'Cause you never thought that I had a chance And we know that you weren't too shy to say it And you know I'd hate to tell your mother Guess you're not her angel after all And I'd hate to tell your best friends But I got a feeling that they already know Name now You don't even know my name now You don't even know my name now You don't even know my name (you don't even know my name) Know my name now You don't even know my name now You don't even know my name now You don't even know my name And you know I'd hate to tell your mother Guess you're not her angel after all And I'd hate to tell your best friends But I got a feeling that they already know You don't know my name You don't even know my name now (you don't even know my name) You don't even know my name now (you don't even know my name) My name now You don't even know my name now (my name) You don't even know my name now (my name) You don't even know my name You don't even know my name

What a lala... According to the fills The Philistines surround my hills Got to make a run They're behind me with a gun But there's one thing I've got to say For what I don't know now, know now, know now That's why I've got to go According to the fills My feet are my only wheels Still I've got to live Although I'm the fugitive Yes there's one thing I've got to say For what I don't know now, know now, know now That's why I've got to go Yes I've got to go According to the fills The Philistines surround my hills (Lord) I've got to make a run for it They're behind me with a gun Got to let you know, For what I don't know now, know now, know now That's why I've got to go Let them know 'Bout to, 'bout to leave
