Al Stewart You Don`t Even Know Me Lyrics

You Don`t Even Know Me Lyrics

Alright, you saw me in the International Times

You've got my picture in your book

You tell your friends not to call at weekends

And now you wear that far off look



Alright, you stole your mother's best spare sheets

And put them on my bed

And you remember all the words that I say

And now you keep them in your head



But you don't even know me

You don't even know me

You don't even know me at all



Alright, I told you that I'm leaving London

The summer seems so long

I've got no money to pay the rent

I've got no place to take my songs



And then you tell me I should keep on trying

You hand me an envelope

With all the money that you'd saved up

You couldn't stand to see me go



But you don't even know me

You don't even know me

You don't even know me at all



Alright I took you to the Hendrix concert

On the seventh day of May

And through the summer of 1967

We were part of the seeds of change



And now you say that we can really make it

We've got nowhere to fall

Though the signs are hung in the rainy distance

You don't see them at all



And you don't even know me

You don't even know me

You don't even know me at all



You don't even know me

You don't even know me

You don't even know me at all



You don't know me at all

You don't know me at all



Alright I think that we should stay together

For a while
