I Gotta Know

I gotta know

If I give my heart to you,

And everything you say is true,

And everything you say you'll do, you'll do.

And I gotta know, if I bare my soul right here,

You'll never run or disappear,

You'll hold me till the hours turn to years.

And I gotta say, my heart has never been so sure,

You've mended every piece that tore,

And now my love's too strong to tear away.

So I gotta know, if you feel the same my dear,

Lets justify why we are here,

Say the words that I long to hear.

'cause I've been so strong for so long,

I've never needed anyone,

But my strength is wearing out my heart.

So I'm letting my guard down

'cause I feel like I've finally found somebody.

But I gotta know.

I gotta know

You'll still kiss away my tears,

Even if they make no sense, even if they put you on defense.

And I gotta know

Through the times when it gets rough,

That our love will be enough, and you'll never let it go.

'cause I've been so strong for so long,

I never needed anyone,

But my strength is wearing out my heart.

So I'm letting my guard down

'cause I feel like I've finally found somebody.

But I gotta know.

I gotta know, babe.

I need to hear you say,

I know only time will tell,

But I need to hear it anyway.

'cause now my love's too strong to tear away.

'cause I've been so strong for so long,

I never needed anyone,

But my strength is wearing out my heart.

So I'm letting my guard down

'cause I feel like I've finally found somebody.

But I gotta know.

I gotta know.
