If You Knew Me

If You Just Knew Me

Lyrics:  Susie Whiting  Copyright 2008

 Verse 1:

If you knew me, you would see that I’m a lot like you.
If you take away the cover and get to know the package through and through
I'm a kidder and a schemer, a lover and a dreamer
Not quite yet all that I can be
It’s just quite possible if you just knew me.

 Chorus:

If you knew me would you see beneath this shell?
I am reaching toward heaven but sometimes I stumble and I fail
I have a heart that can be broken, a body that’s a token
Covering a soul you cannot see.

It’s just quite possible, that I’m not that awful,

If you just knew me.

Verse 2:

If you knew me, if you read the pages of my book.
Open up the cover if you dared to look.
You could find in me a friend, complete with love that never ends.
Perhaps a diamond a different shade of blue
It’s quite possible that I’m like you.

Chorus:
If you knew me could you see beneath this shell?
I am reaching toward Heaven but sometimes I stumble and fail
I have a heart that can be broken, a body that’s a token
Covering a soul you cannot see.
It’s just quite possible, if you just knew me.
If you just knew me.
