Think You Should Know
jacksoul Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I know we been friends
But I got this feeling I just can't stop
I think you should know
As hard as I try
I can't keep my hands to myself.
Here with you, morning dew shining on your lips
Baby (ooo!) how we do, you I can't resist
Give me a chance.
You'd be buggin out to look this gift horse in the mouth
I'd be crazy to run from you
I think you should know.
I think you should know that I been losing sleep.
Everywhere I turn I see you with me.
What's it gonna be.
I confess I'm obsessed with your loveliness.
And I feel blessed when I'm next to ya
Tell me this: Will you give me a chance?
Give me a chance.
Listen when I'm talkin to ya
