Charm of Finches - 'If You Know Me' ft. Sam Bentley (The Paper Kites) MUSIC VIDEO

'If You Know Me' is Track 5 off Charm of Finches' fourth full length album 'Marlinchen In The Snow'. The album was recorded in Nova Scotia, Canada in the depths of the snowy winter.

'If You Know Me' is about having a resting b*tch face and navigating communication in the initial stages of a relationship - haha. When we were recording this song we felt it needed something extra and so we cheekily asked Sam Bentley from The Paper Kites if he might jump on it in some capacity. He came back with an incredible second verse which completed it perfectly.

LYRICS:
No one will ever know all the secrets that hide behind my frown
You think I’m cold as the winter, warm as the sun when it’s down
And my face it seems to say to anyone that comes my way
‘Get the hell away from me or I'll pin you down’

But if you know me
You know that I like to talk
That I like to read your thoughts
And I’ll hold you if that’s what you want from me tonight

And I know I can be misleading when I don’t give you what you’re needing
Like a light in the evening, rain on a summer’s day
But I wanna be around ya, baby come on let the fire surround ya
I can burn with or without ya, tell me you’ll stay

And I know I can be a downer, a pessimistic, killjoy, frowner
But I wanna be around ya, know that I do
And I’ll say what I wanna say even if it’s not what you wanna hear today
And I’m sorry for your dismay, come on, give me a break

Cos if you know me,
You know that I like to talk,
That I like to read your thoughts
And I’ll hold you if that’s what you want from me tonight
Yeah if you know me
You know that I like to joke
So before this goes up in smoke
Why don’t you get to know me
