she never knew me

she packed up her suitcase

and walked to the door

she said she won't come back

like she's done before

i'll bet she's in dallas

before it gets dark

i know she's thinkin'

she's breakin' my heart. she knows i love her

so she thinks i'll crawl

but she never knew me

she never knew me

she never knew me

at all. she knows i love her

i know i need her

god knows to please her

i've tried

and i've tried. by now if i know her

she's changed her mind

she'll pull off the highway

and have a good cry. and then like a lost child

she'll wanna come home

she thinks i'm waitin'

there by the phone. she'll stop in some cafe

and give me a call

but she never knew me

she never knew me

she never knew me

at all.
