They Don`t Know Me — текст песни (Melissa Etheridge)

Jamie, I`m alone here on the kitchen floor
come on meet me on La Brea just this side of fourth
hey don`t stop and think about what your roommates say
`cause they never really liked me that much anyway
oh they whisper and warn ya and tell ya
that something`s not right
but Jamie, just tell me you won`t listen at night

`cause I would buy the writing
if the walls were cheap
I`d steal a piece of heaven
if gods would sleep
I might be your salvation
I might just set you free
but everyone keeps talking
like there`s something you don`t see
but they don`t know me

Jamie, come and meet me down in this little bar
they want to hear me play my songs
and beat up my guitar
hey don`t stop and listen to what they say behind your back
well, they`re starving and just making up for everything they lack
they whisper and warn ya and tell ya that you`re nothing new
okay, maybe I`ve had me a stranger or two

I know that you haven`t really heard from me in ten thousand years
everyone keeps saying how I build you up just to disappear
but they`re not here

Jamie, I`m alone down on the kitchen floor
come on, meet me on La Brea like we done before
hey don`t stop and think about what everybody say
they never really liked me that much anyway
