You Don't Know Me

You Don't Know Me
There's a restless wind that won't make up its mind
Pushing everything aside that's not tied down
I can feel the cold air reaching through the glass
But I won't be moved as I watch for you to pass
You don't know me
I will wait for you
You don't know me
I will stand for you
When I hear the footsteps echo from behind
Every shadow fills the sidewalk with desire
Though you've got the face of angels in disguise
There's an anger set within those wounded eyes
You don't know me
I will wait for you
You don't know me
But I remember you
And with heaven's help the first won't be the last
If I see you once again I'll never let you pass me
Now these empty streets are covered with the night
Only silence, broken by the gray moonlight
When I caught you staring I returned your smile
But I left you sitting there to wonder why
You don't know me
I will wait for you
You don't know me
But I remember you
And I will wait for you
And I will stand for you
Though you don't know me
