I Wanna Know
Michael Blume Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everybody got a lover
But I can't seem to find one
Everybody got another half
And makes them complete

I just want a chance to fall in love with someone
I just want a dance but heaven know I'm the only one
I want to get on a ride
I want to study and smile
I want to know that everything is fine
The spirits really into twine

I wanna know what love feel like in that way
I wanna know what love feel like in that way

Late to bloom
Late to play
Late to taste
Late to go
Late to cry
And late to celebrate

They call him in
Call him out
Call him loud
Push him down
The smile
But he could not find
Solid ground

I want to get on a ride
I want to study and smile
I want to know that everything is fine
The spirits really into twine

I wanna know what love feel like in that way
I wanna know what love feel like in that way

And it don't always come easy
But I won't let you down
If you let me into your heart





I wanna know what love feel like in that way
I wanna know what love feel like in that way

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Michael Blume’s song ‘I Wanna Know’ speak to the universal human desire to find love and connection. The opening lines express his sense of being left out of the experience of love that he sees all around him, “Everybody got a lover but I can't seem to find one, Everybody got another half and makes them complete.” He is searching for the opportunity to experience this feeling for himself, “I just want a chance to fall in love with someone, I just want a dance but heaven know I'm the only one.” The repetition of the line “I wanna know what love feel like in that way” throughout the song emphasizes his longing for this experience.


The second verse introduces a sense of being left behind or feeling like he’s missed out on something, “Late to bloom, Late to play, Late to taste, Late to go, Late to cry, And late to celebrate”. The feeling of being left behind is reinforced with the line, “But he could not find, Solid ground”. The yearning for connection and love persists, with the chorus expressing a desire for the joyful feeling of being in love, “I want to get on a ride, I want to study and smile, I want to know that everything is fine, The spirits really into twine”. The final lines of the song express a sense of determination to continue searching for love, “And it don't always come easy, But I won't let you down, If you let me into your heart”.
