YOU DIDN'T KNOW EACH OTHER VERY WELL (Pete Ham)
[from Keyhole Street: Demos 1966-67 CD - recorded 1966 - released U.S. 2013]

You walk along a darkened street
Just in case by chance you meet again
You know inside, you both were wrong
With tearful eyes, you walk along in vain

You should have known that love was true
Instead of pointing fingers at the one you love
I've stood one side and now I know
You never knew each other very well

(But she's wrong) No, it isn't so
(But he's wrong) No, it seems quite plain
You're both to blame
(It's her fault) No, it isn't so
(It's his fault) No, it's wrong you know
I'll tell you though
You didn't know each other very well
You didn't know each other very well

You walk along a darkened street
Just in case by chance you meet again
You know inside, you both were wrong
With tearful eyes, you walk along in vain

You should have known that love was true
Instead of pointing fingers at the one you love
I've stood one side and now I know
You never knew each other very well

(But she's wrong) No, it isn't so
(But he's wrong) No, it seems quite plain
You're both to blame
(It's her fault) No, it isn't so
(It's his fault) No, it's wrong you know
I'll tell you though
You didn't know each other very well
You didn't know each other very well.
