Gotta know
Catie Lee Lyrics

Oooooh, oh ohhh oh
The singer is expressing strong emotions

I gotta know
The singer needs answers to her questions

I can't hold back any longer so I'm saying it now
The singer has been keeping her thoughts to herself for too long and is finally speaking up

Why am I still waiting?
The singer is wondering why the other person hasn't given her a clear answer yet

I can't keep having these doubts but I want you around
The singer wants to continue the relationship, but not if there are doubts and uncertainty

Baby I'm suffocating
The uncertainty is overwhelming for the singer

I know that I made a mistake
The singer acknowledges she's at fault

And I understand that you need your space
The singer gets that the other person needs time apart

But I don't know if I should wait
The singer is questioning whether she should continue to hold out hope

When you're not even trying to make me stay
The singer feels like the other person isn't putting in any effort to keep the relationship going

It's easy to say that you love me
The singer is skeptical of words without actions to back them up

And it's easy to say that you care
The singer needs more than just words to believe how the other person feels

but boy I need to know if what you're saying are just words
The singer needs to know if the other person truly means what they say

or if the feelings are all really there
The singer needs to be sure that the other person's feelings for her are genuine

I wanna move on but I don't wanna waste what we had
The singer is torn between letting go and holding on to what they had

Don't know if I'm just being clueless but I want you so bad
The singer is struggling with her feelings and is unsure of what to do

Everyone says just to leave it alone
Other people are advising the singer to let it go and move on

But I need to know, what's on your mind
The singer still needs answers to her questions

I say I don't care, but baby that's a lie...
The singer is trying to hide her true feelings, but she can't deny how much she cares and wants answers

Oooooh, oh ohhh oh
The singer is expressing strong emotions again

I gotta know
The singer needs answers to her questions

I can't hold back any longer so I'm saying it now
The singer is finally speaking up after holding back her thoughts for too long

Why am I still waiting?
The singer is wondering why the other person isn't giving her a clear answer yet

I can't keep having these doubts but I want you around
The singer wants to continue the relationship but not if there are doubts and uncertainty

Baby I'm suffocating
The uncertainty is overwhelming for the singer

Oooooh, oh ohhh oh
The song ends with the singer still expressing strong emotions
