Suzanne Vega - Not Me Lyrics
I said, I am a little girlHe said, you never wereI said, I am not readyHe said, then tell me when you areI said, I am too young for thisHe said, you are not reallyI said, I think I am afraidHe said, youre being sillyNot meNot meI said, I do not understandHe said, you are pretendingThat would seem to contradictThe message you are sendingI said, you must be lonelyHe said, I would not worryI said, I think Im dreamingOr Im growing in a hurryThis is not meNot meHe took somebody by the hairAnd dragged her down the hallHe took her to the bathroomWhere they could not hear the callHe took her to a little roomShe could not find the keyBut I dont know who it was becauseI know it wasNot meNot meAnd when will you stop runningFrom a human situation?He said, do you think your silencesAre helping this relation?Do you think your solitudeWill teach you to be free?I said, I dont know who youre talking toI know it is not meNot meNot me(june 1981)
