If I Knew You Better - Helen Kane

I just hate conventions

They make life a plan

Please trust my good intentions

Oh, I’ll do the best I can

Let’s get old and show them

Oh, it’s fun to think you’ve been!

Let’s take the rules and throw them

Out to the old four winds

'Cause

If I knew you better, I’d hold you tight

And if you knew me better, you’d think it was all right

They say in time, love does away with all fear

Let us pretend that we’ve known each other for years

Huh?

If I knew you better?

Let’s pretend we quarreled, when I met you, just then?

And now we kiss, and we make up again

Oh, if I knew you better

Why, I’d build you a castle for two

For what could be better than loving you?

Let’s say that we quarreled when I met you, just then?

And now we can kiss, and make up again

Oh, if I knew you better

Why, I’d build you a castle, for two

For, what could be better than loving you?
