      You don’t love me
      You don’t know me
      You give your hand to me, and then you say hello
      And I can hardly speak, my heart is beating so
      And anyone can tell you think you know me well
      But you don’t know me (no, you don’t know me)
      No, you don’t know the one who dreams of you at night
      And longs to kiss your lips, and longs to hold you tight
      Oh, I’m just a friend, that’s all I’ve ever been
      ‘Cause you don’t know me (no, you don’t know me)
      For I never knew the art of making love
      Though my heart aches with love for you
      Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by
      A chance that you might love me too (love me too)
      You give your hand to me, and then you say goodbye
      I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy
      Oh, to never, never know the one who loves you so
      Well, you don’t know me
      For I never knew the art of making love
      Though my heart aches with love for you
      Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by
      A chance that you might love me too (love me too)
      Oh, you give your hand to me, and then you say goodbye
      I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy
      Oh, you’ll never, never know the one who love you so
      Well, you don’t know me
      You don’t love me
      You don’t know me

                      Yo Leo, i gotta spring 1500 bucks for the Yammy to purhase and need to make my mind soon up on it as it is for sale at a local sax repair shoppe being repadded and all, and she has been sitting on it for me, that is after servicing my Trevor James which is honking well at the mo. The body work is pretty average to say the least on the yammy, must have been slid across the floor at more than a few gigs between players jamming like. But i am contemplating buying a soprano of late coz my neck hurts and my head even more too in trying to get around reading music. Whatever would Kenny say.
                      I have kinda given up all notation methods i sporatically invent and actually using my ears more now. Currently i have hit the wall saxophonically speaking with some passing health issues too but when i can read properely after 6 years of effort to date hope to shake it off so will be inclined to post a good air for you soon maybe next month k? Get down, get up again. Stay cool you groover you and rather nice to know you are still blowin’ in the wind on synthetic reeds even. Hot stuff!
                      Gotta run, rap soon ya. 🙂

                        Hello Mark, sorry you had some health issues and a sore neck, the tenor sax has some weight to it and can hurt your neck i had similar problems with my tenor so i got a “saxophone harness” that distributes the weight to the shoulders equally i put up a link to ebay that shows the type of neck strap you might want to get, take a look.
                        I use it all the time and the sore neck is gone. Leo
