lyrics

Well I thought I saw you
Just the other day
Our eyes were about to meet then you turned and walked away
You walked away

The winds have changed directions
A storm about to break
Don’t take love for granted cause tomorrow it could all go away
Just go away

You don’t know me
You don’t know by now
If you don’t know me babe
Then it then it don’t matter now
No it don’t matter now

Spent last night drinking
Just like the night before
All these thoughts I’m thinking
Don’t want to think no more
Think no more

Sunlight breaks the window
Shining bright into my eyes
Pounding in my head
Lord, I hope it’ll pass with time
Will pass with time

You don’t know me
You don’t know by now
I guess that you don’t know me babe
And it don’t matter now

Will I be forgiven?
For all the sins I’ve done
So damn lonely here
Taking each day one by one
Just as it comes

Maybe in another time
A far and distance land
You overcome what’s in your mind
And I become your man
Become your man

You don’t know me
You don’t know by now
I guess that you don’t know me babe
And it don’t matter now
And it don’t matter now

Rodney Rice knows just how to capture the fleeting glimmers of an emotional moment in life and turn them into songs that evoke our own feelings of despair and hope, loss and love. Rice delivers his lyrics with a knowing nod and wink and a twinkle of the eye to the difficulties we encounter in our daily lives, and creates memorable characters in his songs whose foibles remind us of folks we know. ... more
