“If I Knew”

If I knew
What was bothering you
I would run to your side
I don’t know why
I would just die
If you left me

Can’t you see
What you’re doing to me?
Are you playin’ a game?
It’s always the same
Am I to blame?
Or is anyone?

I don’t wanna settle down
With any other girl but you
So I’m just gonna wait around
’Til you decide what you’re gonna do

Can’t you see
What you’re doing to me?
Are you playin’ a game?
It’s always the same
Am I to blame?
Or is anyone?

I don’t wanna settle down
With any other girl but you
So I’m just gonna wait around
’Til you decide what you’re gonna do
