When you were born
I knew your name before you
Felt your mother's arms
I knew your head, your hands, your heart
When you called
With sudden cry and sudden fall
You claimed you'd come
You didn't want to died alone
And
You
You
You don't know my name
Oh my love
If you could feel the way I felt
About you now
You might understand my pain
So when you call
With sudden burst and needless blows
I take you in
With all your vanity and woes
And
You
You
You don't know my name
