you don't know my heart - janis ian lyrics
[verse 1]
we learn to stand in the shadows
watch the way the wind blows
thinking no one knows we’re one of a kind
shy glances at the neighboring team
romance is a dangerous dream
never knowing if they’ll laugh or scream
living on a fault line
will you, won’t you be mine?
hoping it’ll change in time
[chorus]
we can’t hold hands
when there’s sunlight in the park
we just hold hands after dark
and people say we choose this way
to set ourselves apart
i say, “you don’t know my heart
you don’t know my heart”
[verse 2]
used to run, i used to hide
heard a joke and let it slide
easier to laugh than lie, waiting on discovery
tried to fit, i tried to blend
we learn young to pretend
’cause if they knew, the world would end
frightened of my family
where is everyone like me?
when will i be free
[chorus]
we can’t hold hands
when there’s sunlight in the park
we just hold hands after dark
and people say we choose this way
to set ourselves apart
i say, “you don’t know my heart
you don’t know my heart”
[bridge]
everybody needs a love of their own
i’m no different than the rest
everyone deserves a happy home
and that’s what we do best
why do they have to make it a test?
[chorus]
we can’t hold hands
when there’s sunlight in the park
we just hold hands after dark
and people say we choose this way
to set ourselves apart
i say, “you don’t know my heart
you don’t know my heart”
[outro (fade)]
we can’t hold hands
when there’s sunlight in the park…
