I Never Knew Your Name
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Although we've never, never danced
I loved you with just one glance
You were dancing, I was glancing
As you passed me on the floor
You saw me glancing but you kept dancing
Out of the room and through the door
I beg your pardon, but in the garden
He placed a flower in your hair
But when he kissed you, oh how I missed you
Wishing that I were there
Then I dreamed upon a star
Wishing I was where you are
How I thought the day would never come
And when I thought that I was first
All at once my bubble burst
And I was standing where I started from
To my regret dear, we've never met dear
But I love you just the same
Although we've never danced
I loved you with just one glance
And I never, no I never knew your name
(la-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la-la-la-laaa
la-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la la-la-la la-la-laaa)
To my regret dear, we've never met dear
But I love you just the same
Although we've never danced
I loved you with just one glance
And I never, no I never knew your name
(la-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la
la la-la-la la!)
