Important In Your Life
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm always gonna have to know I'm important in your life.
If you try and come see me and I'm not there,
Tell me you tried so I know you care.
I want to know that I'm important
In your life
Know that I'm important in your life.
I know a girl, she's important to me.
When I feel separate from her, I am in misery.
Dear, let me know that I'm important
In your life
That's what I tell her: Let me know that I'm important in your life.
Hey hey hey hey ho ho whoa
Da da la must always know
Always have to know I'm important
In your life
Always have to know in your life.
Tell me when you think of me.
Admit that you missed me.
I want to know that I'm important
In your life
Know that I'm important in your life.
Darling, tell me
Tell me you love me
I'd have to hear how I'm important
In your life
Tell me I'm important in your life.
Tell me now, one more time.
I want to hear it in verse and rhyme.
I have to hear from you that I'm important
In your life
Know that I'm important in your--
Not enough to know it,
I want to hear it.
Know that I'm important
In your life
Know that I'm important in your--
Tell me, tell me, make me feel good
Know that I'm important
In your life
Know that I'm important in your life.
