I Don't Believe You

I can’t understand

She let go of my hand

An' left me here facing the wall

I’d sure like t' know

Why she did go

But I can’t get close t' her at all

Though we kissed through the wild blazing nighttime

She said she would never forget

But now mornin’s clear

It’s like I ain’t here

She just acts like we never have met

It’s all new t' me

Like some mystery

It could even be like a myth

Yet it’s hard t' think on

That she’s the same one

That last night I was with

From darkness, dreams’re deserted

Am I still dreamin' yet?

I wish she’d unlock

Her voice once an' talk

'Stead of acting like we never have met

If she ain’t feelin' well

Then why don’t she tell

'Stead of turnin' her back t' my face?

Without any doubt

She seems too far out

For me t' return t' her chase

Though the night ran swirling an' whirling

I remember her whispering yet

But evidently she don’t

An' evidently she won’t

She just acts like we never have met

If I didn’t have t' guess

I’d gladly confess

T' anything I might’ve tried

If I was with 'er too long

Or have done something wrong

I wish she’d tell me what it is, I’ll run an' hide

Though her skirt it swayed as a 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 leavin' today

I’ll be on my way

Of this I can’t say very much

But if you want me to

I can be just like you

An' pretend that we never have touched

An' if anybody asks me, "Is it easy to forget?"

I’ll say, "It's easily done

You just pick anyone

An' pretend that you never have met!"
