From the recording Moonlight Feels Right - The Original Masters
Lyrics
Lyrics & Music by Bruce Blackman
I helped you with your problems, you ought to help me with mine
Oh, I got to know, I got to know, just gimme’ some kind of sign
You wanna’ be a lady scholar, you ought to know what to say
Oh, I got to know, I got to know, we can’t go on this way
Any major fool down on 42nd street will tell you that’s no way to beat the heat
You’re a little younger maybe I’m a little old
I never said it but I need to be told…
(Chorus)
I got to know, I got to know, I got to know
I got to know, I got to know, I got to know
I got to know, I got to know, I got to know
You communicate with silence, you expect me to understand
Oh, I got to know, I got to know, you can make me a happy man
Whille I’m waitin’ for your answer, I’m sleeping in my shoes
Oh, I got to know, I got to know, ‘cause I wanna’ go spread the news
Any major fool down on 42nd street will tell you that’s no way to beat the heat
You’re a little younger maybe I’m a little old
I never said it but I need to be told…
(Repeat Chorus)
So if you think you need me, just gimme a little call
Oh, I got to know, I got to know what’s on your mind, what’s on it
But I’m tired of all this waiting, you sweet talk me to death
Oh, I got to know, I got to know
So I better not hold my breath
(Chorus Outro)
