Lyrics
All I Want to Know
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.
all I want to know is do you still want me?
and, if not so, why do you still haunt me
like a song, like a ghost, all night long?
that's almost all I want to know
all I want to know is can I still need you?
are we still go, or did I misread you?
I won't settle for less
and that's not yet, I'll confess, all I want to know
I want to know now, on your mother's grave
is there nothing, nohow, left to save?
be brave, tell me tonight, or not at all
we don't have to fight
I can make last call, and play a little pinball
all I want to know is, you don't, do you?
call me slow, but I can't see through you
count to ten, tell me then
will you love me again is all I want to know...
