And How Am I To Know / Entracte: Dancer - Ars Nova

You’re not hearing what I say

Oh, no, your mind’s on something else

And how am I to know

Oh, yeah, I’ll wait around and see

'Cause lately here below

Keeping has forgotten me

And now you smile and touch my hand

Oh, no, you don’t want to understand

And even as I try to speak

Oh, you put your finger to my lips

And at my fingertips

The moment’s gone again

Oh, if you just tell me

Yes, let me go

And how am I to know

You’re not hearing what I say

Oh, no, your mind’s on something else

And how am I to know

Oh, yeah, I’ll wait around and see

'Cause lately here below

Keeping has forgotten me
