I Want To Know


Does he know how much you love to write?

Does he know what keeps you up at night

Does he really love you or is he just putting on a show?

Please tell me because I Want To Know

Does he know Singin' In The Rain is your favorite movie?

Does he know you love baked chocolate chip cookies?

Does he can sad when it's time for you to go?

Please tell me because I Want To Know

Did he ever bother to read your book?

If he did, does he realize how much effort that took?

When it's time for you to leave, does he say please don't go

Please tell me because I Want To Know

Did he ever watch you on the television screen?

Did he ever say you were a vision on your beloved beach?

Does he follow you around everywhere you go?

Please tell me because I Want To Know

Does he really savor every single kiss?

Does he know you possess so many different gifts?

Does he tell you how much he needs you so?

Please tell me because I Want To Know

Does he tell you how much he loves your pretty smile?

Does he hold you for more than just a little while?

When you crave affection, does he ever tell you no?

Please tell me because I Want To Know?

Does he notice that sparkle in your eyes?

Does he know that you once gave great dating advice?

Does he love you  from head to toe?

Please tell me because I Want To Know

Does he know you like I do?

Does he love you like I already do?

Does he tell you how much he loves you so?

Please tell me because I Want To Know
