Sure Know Something - Lyrics
I've been up and down, I've been all around I was mystified, almost terrified But late at night I still hear you call my name I've been on my own, I've been all alone I was hypnotized, I felt paralyzed But late at night I still want you just the same I've been a gambler, but I'm nobody's fool And I sure know something, sure know something You showed me things they never taught me in school And I sure know something, sure know something No one can make me feel the way that you do And I sure know something, aha I was seventeen, you were just a dream I was mesmerized, I felt scared inside You broke my heart and I still can feel the pain I've been counted out, I've had fear and doubt I've been starry eyed, never satisfied 'Cause late at night I still need you just the same Just the same I've been a gambler, but I'm nobody's fool And I sure know something, sure know something You showed me things they never taught me in school And I sure know something, sure know something No one can make me feel the way that you do And I sure know something, aha I've been counted out, I've had fear and doubt I've been starry eyed, never satisfied 'Cause late at night I still need you just the same Just the same, yeah I've been a gambler, but I'm nobody's fool And I sure know something, sure know something You showed me things they never taught me in school And I sure know something, sure know something No one can make me feel the way that you do And I sure know something, sure know something No one can tell me 'til I hear it from you And I sure know something, sure know something I've been a gambler, but I'm nobody's fool Sure know something, sure know something You showed me things they never taught me in school Sure know something, sure know something No one can make me feel the way that you do
