Janis Ian You don't Know my Heart Lyrics:
I like to stand in the shadows,
Watch the way the wind blows.
Thinkin' that no one knows,
We're one of a kind.
Shy glances at the neighbor's team.
Romance is a dangerous dream.
Never knowin' if they'll laugh or scream.
Livin' on a fault line,
Will you, won't you be mine?
Hopin' it'll change in time.

We can't hold hands,
When there's sunlight in the park.
We just hold hands after dark.
And if people say we choose this way,
To set ourselves apart.
I say, "You don't know my heart.
You don't know my heart."

I used to run, I used to hide.
Heard a joke and let it slide.
Easier to laugh than lie,
Waitin' on discovery.
Tried to fit, I tried to blend.
I learned young to pretend,
As if they knew the world would end.
Frightened of my family.
Where is anyone like me?
When will I be free?

We can't hold hands,
When it's sunlight in the park.
We just hold hands after dark.
And when people say we choose this way,
To set ourselves apart.
I say, "You don't know my heart.
Oh, you don't know my heart."

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?

We can't hold hands,
When it's sunlight in the park.
We just hold hands after dark.
And if people say we choose this way,
To set ourselves apart.
I say, "You don't know my heart.
You don't know my heart."

We can't hold hands,
[Fade.]
When it's sunlight in the park.
We just hold hands after dark...
