I never got to know her — текст песни (Dr. Hook)

And I remember her on the streets of New York City
As I walked the night needing some place warm to go
As she passed I said Hey there`s snowflakes on your lashes
And she laughed and said, That isn`t snow

She said, they`re feathers from a pillow God is shaking in the sky
And she opened smiling lips to catch a snowflake blowing by
And we both began to laugh and then I looked into her eyes
And it was warm again

But
I never got to know her very well
All we did was spend a little time
You`re waiting for a story but there`s really none to tell
She`s just a passing shadow on my mind

But I remember her as we woke up warm together
In her sunlit room, and she said, I`ll help you pack
And she sewed my shirt and I said, I`ll stay forever
But she laughed and put some cookies in my sack

And she said Leave a trail of cookie crumbs as you walk through the snow
And someday I`ll follow after and I`ll find you where you go
And I left her in her doorway but why I`ll never know
But I was younger then

So
I never got to know her very well
All we did was spend a little time
You`re waiting for a story but there`s really none to tell
She`s just a passing shadow on my mind

Oh you`re waiting for a story but there`s really none to tell
