Don’t Know
By Jed Moffitt

When I met you, you were nothing special to me
There was nothing I could do but satisfy my curiosity
How was I to know you would clip the wings off a hummingbird?
I was smitten by your turn of a phrase…by your twist of a word

You don’t know what you don’t know
Don’t know what you don’t know
Don’t go, baby don’t go away
Don’t be selling me tomorrow
When I’m living on yesterday

I remember when you told me I looked good in my jeans
I didn’t understand the limited range of what a compliment means
How was I to know it was only good so far as it goes?
How was I to understand inside a mind that only knows what it knows?

You don’t know what you don’t know
Don’t know what you don’t know
Don’t go, baby don’t go away
Don’t be selling me tomorrow
When I’m living on yesterday

One day I returned home and you were gone away
I remember standing there alone, nothing to do and nothing to say

You don’t know what you don’t know
Don’t know what you don’t know
Don’t go, baby don’t go away
Don’t be selling me tomorrow
When I’m living on yesterday

You don’t know what you don’t know
Don’t know what you don’t know
Don’t go, baby don’t go away
Don’t be selling me tomorrow
When I’m living on yesterday
