I Don't Believe You Songtext

von Al Stewart

Oh I can't understand
She let go of my hand
And left me here facing the wall
I'd sure like to know
Why she did go
But I can't get through to her at all
Though we kissed through the wild blazing night time
She said she'd never forget
But now morning is clear
It's like I ain't here
She acts like we never have met

It's all new to me
Like some mystery
It could even be like a myth
Yet it's hard to think on
That she's the same one
That only last light I was with
From darkness dreams are deserted
Am I still dreaming yet
I wish she'd unlock
Her voice once and talk
'Stead of acting like we'd never met

If she ain't feelin' well
Then why don't she tell
'Stead of turning her back to my face
Without any doubt
She just seems too far out
For me to return to or chase
Well the night ran swirling and whirling
I remember her whispering yet
But evidently she don't
Evidently she won't
She just acts like we never have met

If I didn't have to guess
I'd gladly confess
To anything I might have tried
If I was wither her too long
Or have done something wrong
I wish she'd say what it is, I'll run and hide
Though her skirt it swayed as the guitar played
Her mouth was watery and wet
But now something has changed
For she ain't the same
She just acts like we never have met

I'm leaving today
I'll be on my way
Of this I can't say too much
But if you want me to
I can be just like you
And pretend that we never have touched
And if anybody should ask me
Is it easy to forget
Why it's easily done
You just pick anyone
Pretend that you never have met
