Intro

x2

You were sixteen and I was all wired

 You were Venus di Milo inspired

 You convinced me that I was ok

 I convinced you that maybe you'd stay

 If I thought that you'd give up on me

 I'd have never said hello

 Girl you gotta know

 Girl you gotta know

 We grew up and you grew away

 But I'd follow you till my dying day

 All the guys that would try for your hand

 Couldn't steal you from this desperate man

 If I thought that you'd give up on me

 I'd have never said hello

 Girl you gotta know

 Girl you gotta know

 Girl you gotta know

 Girl you gotta know, yes you do

 And this face that you see

 Well you know it ain't me

With this lack of resolve and of will

 Like a dog that won't learn

 Visions you can't discern

 But you know me and you like me still

 26 and I've grown enough

 I'm not better, but I won't give up

 You're still here like a flower in rain

 You get knocked down then you rise up again

 If I thought that you'd give up on me

 I'd have never said hello now

 Girl you gotta know

 Girl you gotta know

 Girl you gotta know

 Girl you gotta know, yes you do

Yes you do baby, yeaa

 Singin’ ooooh oooooh ooh yea

 Ooooh ooooh oooh oh yea

 Ooooh ooooh ooh yea

 Ooooh oooh yea yea yea yea ah

 Yes you gotta know

 Girl you gotta know yea
