Get To Know You
Tomo Nakayama Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I could be dreaming
I could be making something
Big out of nothing
Anyway we go
I could be sleeping
I could be reading into
Something that′s not there
Who can really know

And I'm just around the corner from you
I′m waitin round the bend
And I'm just around the corner from you
I'm waitin round the bend

Tell me stories tell me rhymes
Tell me anything you like
Tell me all about the good things
That could make you feel alive
Could be just one little spark
Just two strangers in the dark, honey
I′d like to get to know you
I′d like to get to know you now

You got me reeling
We could be out here dancing
Shake out the feeling
See the way it goes
I could be dreaming
We could be making something
Good out of nothing
Who can really know

And I'm just around the corner from you
I′m waiting round the bend
And I'm just around the corner from you
I′m waiting round the bend

Tell me stories, tell me rhymes
Tell me anything you like
Tell me all about the hard times
That you had to be alive
Could be just one little spark
Just two strangers in the dark, honey
I'd like to get to know you
I′d like to get to know you now

Tell me stories, tell me rhymes
Tell me anything you like
Tell me all about the good things
That could make you feel alive
Could be just one little spark
Just two strangers in the dark, honey
I'd like to get to know you
I'd like to get to know you now
Tell me stories tell me rhymes
Tell me anything you like
Tell me all about the hard times
That you had to be alive
Could be just one little spark
Just two strangers in the dark, honey
I′d like to get to know you
I′d like to get to know you now




I'd like to get to know you now
I′d like to get to know you now
