I Hardly Knew It Was You Songtext
von Faron Young

(Dan Welch)

Tinted hair and painted lips
Polish on your fingertips
I hardly knew it was you
Shabby dress and worn out lock
A shadow of the girl I love
I hardly knew it was you.


You once said that you
Would have no one
Not no one will ever have you
A life of hardship and disgrace
I see it written on your face
I hardly knew it was you.

--- Instrumental ---

Custom jewels and cheap perfume
Tou′re like a rose that's lost its bloom
I hardly knew it was you
From the simple girl I knew
You have changed dear, goin′ through
I hardly knew it was you.

We could have lived our lives together
But your heart had a mind all its own
What a pity what a shame
I don't know who's to blame
But I hardly knew it was you...
