I Want To Know
Terry & The Tyrants Lyrics


Jump to: Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I'm older

Now this mountain I must climb
Feels like the world upon my shoulders
Through the clouds I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder

In my life, there's been heartache and pain
I don't know, if I can face it again
Can't stop now
I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life

I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me

I'm gonna take a little time
A little time to look around me
I've got nowhere left to hide
It looks like love has finally found me

In my life, there's been heartache and pain
I don't know, if I can face it again
Can't stop now
I've traveled so far, to change this lonely life

I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me, yeah

I wanna know what love is (I wanna know)




I want you to show me (I want you to show me)
I wanna feel what love is (I wanna feel it)
I know you can show me

I've gotta take a little time
I need to set aside some time


A little time to think things over
to contemplate and reflect


I better read between the lines
I should analyze and infer


In case I need it when I'm older
in preparation for the future


Now this mountain I must climb

seems overwhelmingly burdensome


Through the clouds I see love shine
love provides hope and warmth


It keeps me warm as life grows colder
sustaining me during difficult times
