If you knew,
You were my one desire,
You set my soul on fire,
You wouldn't stay away
If you knew,
You were my one desire,
You set my soul on fire,
You wouldn't stay away
Oh darling, I know,
You have got another girl,
She treat you nice, I know,
She's even more beautiful than I
But if you knew,
How my heart burn for you,
And how I long for you,
Mind, you wouldn't stay away
Oh darling, I know,
You have got another girl,
She treat you nice, I know,
She's even more beautiful than I
But if you knew,
How my heart burn for you,
And how I long for you,
Mind, you wouldn't stay away
I say, you wouldn't stay away
Oh no, you wouldn't stay away
I say, you wouldn't stay away
Oh no, you wouldn't stay away
I say, you wouldn't stay away
