I Hardly Knew It Was You - Faron Young

Tinted hair and painted lips

Polish on your fingertips

I hardly knew it was you

Shabby dress and worn out lock

A shadow of the girl I love

I hardly knew it was you

You once said that you

Would have no one

Not no one will ever have you

A life of hardship and disgrace

I see it written on your face

I hardly knew it was you

Custom jewels and cheap perfume

Tou’re like a rose that’s lost its bloom

I hardly knew it was you

From the simple girl I knew

You have changed dear, goin' through

I hardly knew it was you

We could have lived our lives together

But your heart had a mind all its own

What a pity what a shame

I don’t know who’s to blame

But I hardly knew it was you…
