Eleanor Mcevoy - To One Who Didnt Know You текст песни

I

When I asked you how youd been

You told me you were fine

But I knew it was a lie

Because I could see the lines

Of tiredness on your brow

And the tension in your eyes

Ii

Yet to anothers face

There would have been no trace

Of trouble in your day

To one whod never seen

The shadow of your dreams

Or the strangeness of your ways

Chorus

To one who didnt know you

Or want to touch and hold you

To one who didnt need you

Whod never learned to read you

To one who didnt love you,

Wasnt aching just to hug you

Youd look fine

To one who didnt know your crazy mind

Youd look fine.

Iii

I knew youd have a friend

Waiting in the bar

cause thats the way you are

She looked like she was kind

And spoke with strength of mind

That had served her well so far.

But I hoped that she was tough

And wouldnt hurt too much

When youd decide to go

And I swear I almost died

When I saw in her eyes

The image of my own.

Repeat chorus

Chorus

To one who didnt know you

Or want to touch and hold you

To one who didnt need you

Whod never learned to read you

To one who didnt love you,

Wasnt aching just to hug you

Youd look fine

So very, very fine

To one who didnt know your crazy mind

Youd look fine.
