I Wanna Know

 

I think of you

And I hope you’re thinkin’ of me too

If words could say

Then I would call you up right away

 

I look at my face

And I see these thoughts have really left their trace

I would relate

But there’s somethin’ inside that makes me hesitate

 

‘Cause I remember how you gave me your love

But are you on that same page still

And I know this empty place that I hide

Is one that only I can fill

 

I wanna know      I wanna know

Can you feel me deep in your heart

I wanna know      I wanna know

Can you feel me deep in your heart

 

I gotta say

I just can’t deny that I’m feelin’ this way

Day after day

I have to look to myself if it’s gonna change

 

It’s been so long

And now I’m challenged to know what it means to be strong

As I carry on

 I hope that what we shared continues on and on

 

 ‘Cause I feel something growin’ inside

  And it could grow to be so strong

 But if I’m sure that you’re feelin’ it too

What if I turn out to be wrong

 

I wanna know    I wanna know

   Can you feel me deep in your heart

I wanna know    I wanna know

  Can you feel me deep in your heart

 

  I’d really love to be with you

 And share all of who I am

 But am I missin' the clue

Cause I don't know where I stand

If I seem blue

 It may be because I'm already old news

Still payin' dues

Feels like forever I've been waitin' on you

Though there's no blame

This can't continue just the same

The question remains

But it could be one to bring me pain

 

Cause there's things that need to be said

That I've had to keep at bay

And these feelings that don't ever fade 

Will they see the light of day

I wanna know      I wanna know

Can you feel me deep in your heart

I wanna know      I wanna know

Can you feel me deep in your heart

 

 What we shared was true

    But now I wonder how well I really know you

Are we in tune

   Or could it be I opened up the door too soon

 

‘Cause all I’ve seen is your sunshine and smiles

      But I know there’s another side

       And when your darkness stares me straight in the eye

    I’m not gonna run and hide

 

I wanna know      I wanna know

Can you feel me deep in your heart

I wanna know      I wanna know

Can you feel me deep in your heart
