"You Don't Know Me" lyrics

Devendra Banhart, Blake Mills & Beverly Glenn-Copeland Lyrics

"You Don't Know Me"
(originally by Caetano Veloso)

You don't know me
Bet you'll never get to know me
You don't know me at all
Feel so lonely
The world is spinning round slowly
There's nothing you can show me from behind the wall

Show me from behind the wall
Show me from behind the wall
Show me from behind the wall

You don't know me
Bet you'll never get to know me
You don't know me at all
Feel so lonely
The world is spinning round slowly
There's nothing you can show me from behind the wall

Show me from behind the wall
Come on and show me from behind the wall
Show me from behind the wall
Come on and show me from behind the wall
Show me from behind the wall
Why don't you show me from behind the wall?

Nasci lá na Bahia, de mucama com feitor
O meu pai dormia em cama, minha mãe no pisador
Laia, ladaia, sabatana, Ave Maria

You don't know me
Bet you'll never get to know me
(Eu, você, nós dois, já temos um passado, meu amor)
You don't know me at all
(Um violão guardado, aquela flor)
Feel so lonely
The world is spinning round slowly
(E outras mumunhas mais)
There's nothing you can show me from behind the wall

Show me from behind the wall
Come on and show me from behind the wall
Show me from behind the wall
Why don't you show me from behind the wall?
Show me from behind the wall
Come on and show me from behind the wall
Show me from behind the wall
Come on and—

Laia, ladaia, sabatana, Ave Maria
Laia, ladaia, sabatana, Ave Maria
Laia, ladaia, sabatana, Ave Maria

Eu agradeço ao povo brasileiro
Norte, Centro, Sul inteiro
Onde reinou o baião
Eu agradeço ao povo brasileiro
Norte, Centro, Sul inteiro
Onde reinou o baião
