Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah I just wanna know (yeah yeah)
Yeah I just wanna know (yeah yeah)
Yeah I just wanna know (why you making my heart so cold)
And baby you just rock my world (yeah)
You swept the ground right under my feet (uh)
And ooh I know there's something about you girl
And ooh you know there's something bout me
Making me think it's make believe (uh)
And ooh I want you so damn bad it hurts
I don't know who you want me to be
Gave you my heart
Threw it back in my face
It's really my fault I guess
But let truth be told the way you did me was cold
I don't even have a heart so why it still beat in my chest
Notice,
Get you out of my head so I can focus
Staying up in my bed feeling emotions
You're a treasure to me baby you're golden
All the things that you said got my heart frozen
Yeah I just wanna know (yeah yeah)
Yeah I just wanna know (yeah yeah)
Yeah I just wanna know (yeah yeah)
Yeah I just wanna know (why you making my heart so cold)
Call me when you're lonely
Can't do what you told me
Baby I got a feeling that you found a new reason
I change girls like the season can't talk
(Yeah yeah, can't talk, yeah yeah)
Can't talk (Yeah yeah, can't talk, yeah yeah)
(Can't talk, I can't talk, yeah yeah)
(Can't talk, I can't talk)
I just wanna know
Yeah I just wanna know (yeah, yeah)
Yeah I just wanna know (yeah, yeah)
Yeah I just wanna know (yeah, yeah)
Yeah I just wanna know (why you making my heart so cold)
(Oh yeah) I took his heart cause I was longing (yeah yeah)
I took his heart that's why I'm haunted (yeah)
I took his heart and I stomped on it
Not what I wanted but
I had to leave you alone cause you would've did me wrong
So now I am on my own just trying to be strong
This is farewell, not me just being bold
This is farewell, I know I did you cold (yeah)

Yeah I just wanna know (yeah yeah)
I simply want to understand
And baby you just rock my world (yeah)
You completely captivate and excite me
You swept the ground right under my feet (uh)
You completely took me by surprise
And ooh I know there's something about you girl
I sense a special quality in you
And ooh you know there's something bout me
You are aware of something intriguing about me
And baby girl you make my head twirl
You make me feel dizzy with excitement
Making me think it's make believe (uh)
Causing me to question if it's all just a fantasy
And ooh I want you so damn bad it hurts
I desire you intensely and it's painful
I don't know who you want me to be
I am unsure of the expectations you have for me
Gave you my heart
I entrusted you with my emotions
Threw it back in my face
You rejected and humiliated me
It's really my fault I guess
Perhaps it's my own wrongdoing
But let truth be told the way you did me was cold
To be honest, the way you treated me was heartless
I don't even have a heart so why it still beat in my chest
I feel emotionally numb, yet my heart still beats
Notice
Please pay attention
Get you out of my head so I can focus
I want to clear my thoughts and concentrate
Staying up in my bed feeling emotions
Lying awake, overwhelmed by feelings
You're a treasure to me baby you're golden
You are incredibly valuable and special to me
All the things that you said got my heart frozen
Your words have made my heart feel frozen and numb
Call me when you're lonely
Contact me when you feel alone
Can't do what you told me
I am unable to fulfill your requests
Baby I got a feeling that you found a new reason
I suspect you have found a new motivation or attraction
I change girls like the season can't talk
I frequently switch romantic partners, unable to communicate
I took his heart cause I was longing (yeah yeah)
I broke someone's heart because I was yearning for something
I took his heart that's why I'm haunted (yeah)
I bear the burden of guilt because I hurt him deeply
I took his heart and I stomped on it
I crushed and disregarded his feelings
Not what I wanted but
It wasn't my intention
I had to leave you alone cause you would've did me wrong
I had to end our relationship because you would have hurt me
So now I am on my own just trying to be strong
Now, I am alone and striving to be resilient
This is farewell, not me just being bold
This is a goodbye, not just an act of bravery from me
This is farewell, I know I did you cold (yeah)
This is a goodbye, I am aware that I treated you heartlessly
