They met on the internet...but would they like each other face to face? She avoided him, afraid reality would spoil the magic. Years later, married, with kids, he confesses he was her secret behind the scenes, more than words on a computer screen.

Lyrics
I Don't Want To Know You T.Wolf/V.Daniel
V1:
They met on the internet
Right away he was in her head
He felt he knew her all his life
They talked and laughed
as fast as they could type
Handsome stranger@AOL
to lonelylady how could they tell
they'd feel the same way face to face
if they met in some public place
He was her secret behind the scenes
more than more than words on a computer screen
Chorus:
I don't want to know you know you
I've already showed you shown you
That part of me I keep secret
In diaries, with no regrets
I don't want to know you know you
See your eyes or hold you hold you
Don't want reality to spoil the magic
If you want my love, you have it, but
I don't want to know you
V2:
He opened up and shared his soul
She told him things she'd never told
Every day their hearts grew closer
Further in love he was afraid to lose her
He worked in law at a firm downtown
Small world gettin smaller now
Then she heard a voice in a lunch cafe
Saying something only he would say
She had no doubt, it had to be him,
She ran out as he came in...
Chorus:
I don't want to know you know you
I've already showed you showed you
That part of me I keep a secret
In diaries, with no regrets
I don't want to know you know you
See your eyes or hold you hold you
Don't want reality to spoil the magic
If you want my love, you have it, but
I don't want to know you
Bridge:
In the shadow of happiness
words are seldom held close to the vest
He was someone that she could love,
now she wonders if he knows too much...
Chorus:
Instrumental on part...
V3
She let him make the first
That day on 2nd Avenue
He asked her - would you like some company
She smiled and said - are you talkin to me?
Years later after marriage and kids
She got an email that read like this
I guess it took a long time to say but I
knew who you were on the very first day
I was your secret behind the scenes
more than words on a computer screen
They met on the internet....
