I Don’t Believe You (She Acts Like We Never Have Met) [Live at the Royal Albert Hall] Songtext
von Cat Power

I can′t understand, she let go of my hand
And left me here facing the wall
I'd sure like to know why she did go
But I can′t get close to her at all

Though we kissed through the wild blazing nighttime
She said she would never forget
Morning's clear, it's like I ain′t here
She acts like we never met

It′s all new to me, like some mystery
It could even be a myth
But it's hard to think on that she′s the same one
That last night I was with

From darkness, dreams are deserted
Am I still dreaming yet?
I wish she'd unlock her voice once and talk
Instead of acting like we never met


If I didn′t have to guess
I'd gladly confess
To anything I might have tried
If I was with her too long or have done something wrong
I wish she′d tell me what it is, I'll run and hide

And her skirt, it swayed as the guitar played
Her mouth was watery and wet
But now something's changed
For she ain′t the same
She just acts like we never met

I′m leavin' today
I′ll be on my way
Of this, I can't say very much
But if you want me to
I can be just like you
And pretend that we never have touched

And if anybody asks me
"Is it easy to forget?"
I′ll say, "It's easily done, you just pick anyone
And pretend that you never ever met"
