I Don't 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.
Should I let myself go
In his direction
Is his love strong enough
For my heart's protection
I don't know
(I don't know, I don't know)
I don't know
(I don't know, I don't know)
But he loves me so good
Til I think I should, oh, oh
If I gave him my heart
Would he refuse it
Would he tear it apart
Or tenderly use it
I don't know
(I don't know, I don't know)
I don't know
(I don't know, I don't know)
But he hugs me so tight
Til I think I might, oh, oh
When he crushes my eager lips
My heart starts doing flips
Whenever I feel his touch
I get a thrill that's much too much
Too much, too much, too much
Could a heart so right
Be led so wrong
If his long is weak
Would it last this long
I don't know
(I don't know, I don't know)
I don't know
(I don't know, I don't know)
But I hope and pray
That he comes my way, oh, oh
But I hope and pray
That he comes my way, oh, oh
But I hope and pray
That he comes my way, oh, oh
