Songtekst

I wish I knew you wanted me
I wish I knew
I wish I knew you wanted me
I wish I knew
I wish I knew you wanted me

What you, ooh, uh, what you do
Made a move, could have made a move
If I knew I'd be with you
Is it too late to pursue

I bite my tongue, it's a bad habit
Kinda mad that I didn't take a stab at it
Thought you were too good for me, my dear
Never gave me time of day, my dear
It's okay, things happen for
Reasons that I think are sure, yeah

I wish I knew
I wish I knew you wanted me (I wish I knew)
I wish I knew (Oh)
I wish I knew you wanted me
I wish I knew (Yeah)
I wish I knew you wanted me (Oh)
I wish I knew
I wish I knew you wanted me

Please
Say to me (Please, just say to me)
Eeh
Do you still wanna
I wish
You wouldn't play with me
I wanna know
Oh no

Uh, can I bite your tongue like my bad habit
Would you mind if I tried to make a pass at it
No, you're not too good for me, my dear
Funny you come back to me, my dear
It's okay, things happen for
Reasons that I can't ignore, yeah

I wish I knew
I wish I knew you wanted me
I wish I knew (Wish I knew)
I wish I knew you wanted me (Oh)

You can't surprise a Gemini
I'm everywhere, I'm cross-eyed and
Now that you're back, I can't decide
If I decide if you're invited
You always knew the way to wow me
Fuck around, get tongue-tied and
I turn it on, I make it rowdy
Then carry on, but I'm not hidin'
You grabbin' me hard
Cause you know what you found
It's biscuits, it's gravy, babe

You can't surprise a Gemini, but you know
It's biscuits, it's gravy, babe
I knew you'd come back around, cause you know
It's biscuits, it's gravy, babe
Let's fuck in the back of the mall, lose control
Go stupid, go crazy, babe
I know I'll be in your heart till the end
You'll miss me, don't beg me, babe
