(Touch would let me know)
(Touch would let me know)
I guess I need to hear the truth this time
You kept me waitin’ on a lie (waitin’ on a lie, wastin’ all my time)
Waitin’ on a lie, wastin’ all my time
Little did I know (oh), little did I know
I guess I need to hear the truth this time
You kept me waitin’ on a lie (waitin’ on a lie, wastin’ all my time)
Waitin’ on a lie, wastin’ all my time
Little did I know (oh), little did I know
It could be so long
Watching’ you, waitin’, anticipatin’
Just one touch would let me know (touch would let me know)
It would show that not just one but two of us could be lovers though
(Touch would let me know, touch would let me know)
It should be easy to break away, make a little change
It's been so nice not to pretend that we would be together once again
I'm a fool when I know the truth
Know you will not do what I want you to, but why?
I guess I need to hear the truth this time
You kept me waitin’ on a lie (waitin’ on a lie, wastin’ all my time)
Waitin’ on a lie, wastin’ all my time
Little did I know (oh), little did I know
I guess I need to hear the truth this time
You kept me waitin’ on a lie (waitin’ on a lie, wastin’ all my time)
Waitin’ on a lie, wastin’ all my time
Little did I know (oh), little did I know
I'm right here like I been all those other times
Just waiting for you to give a sign (little did I know)
Would be so long, long, watching you
Easy to break away, make a little change
It's been so nice to pretend we could be together again
I'm a fool and I know
Truth, pretend we could be together again
(Guess I need to, guess I need to) it could be so long
(Watchin’ you, waitin’, anticipatin’ (guess I need to—, guess I need to—, guess I need to)
(Just a touch would let me know, touch would let me know (guess I need to, guess I need to hear)
I guess I need to hear the truth this time
You kept me waitin’ on a lie (waitin’ on a lie, wastin’ all my time)
Waitin’ on a lie, wastin’ all my time
Little did I know (oh), little did I know
I guess I need to hear the truth this time
You kept me waitin’ on a lie (waitin’ on a lie, wastin’ all my time)
Waitin’ on a lie, wastin’ all my time
Little did I know (oh), little did I know
(It could be so long)
(Watching’ you, waitin’, anticipatin’)
(Just one touch would let me know, touch would let me know)
(It would show that not just one but two of us could be lovers though)
(Touch would let me know, touch would let me know)
