about

Billy: This was actually written many years ago but is one of those songs that never made it to a CD until now. Some songs never leave your consciousness, they just rattle around until you get them out.

lyrics

You Don’t Know What I’m Saying
©Billy Carl Mancini (aka Bill Mason), Bonk Zone Music ASCAP

When I met you
I thought that you were the girl of my dreams
But that ‘aint true
Cause things aren’t always what they seem to be
And that don’t mean
That we can’t finish what we started to do
So casually
And I’m not trying to take advantage of you

You don’t know what I’m saying
You don’t know

Sometimes you love me, sometimes you don’t
Sometimes you’ll hold me, sometimes you won’t
Talk to the mirror, talk to the wall
What could be clearer, nothing at all

You’re a free girl
And I don’t wanna take that freedom from you
It’s a big world
I know there’s a million things that you wanna do
Let’s spend the night together
The air is cool and the lights are low
Tonight is not forever
And I’ve got time before i have to go
