Eleanor Mcevoy - To One Who Didn't Know You lyrics

rate me

I

When I asked you how you'd 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 another's face

There would have been no trace

Of trouble in your day

To one who'd never seen

The shadow of your dreams

Or the strangeness of your ways

Chorus

To one who didn't know you

Or want to touch and hold you

To one who didn't need you

Who'd never learned to read you

To one who didn't love you

Wasn't aching just to hug you

You'd look fine

To one who didn't know your crazy mind

You'd look fine.

Iii

I knew you'd have a friend

Waiting in the bar

'cause that's 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 wouldn't hurt too much

When you'd 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 didn't know you

Or want to touch and hold you

To one who didn't need you

Who'd never learned to read you

To one who didn't love you

Wasn't aching just to hug you

You'd look fine

So veryvery fine

To one who didn't know your crazy mind

You'd look fine.
