I GOTTA KNOW

Is there a fire still burning for the one who love you so?
Or are you just fooling? Baby, I gotta know.

I come home each evening but you’re not around.
I should know this song by now yet I’m deaf to the sound.
You say you still love me with a wave of your hand.
But it’s not like it was before and I don’t understand.

Why can’t you just come out and tell me?
I’ll pack my things and go.
But still you keep me hanging on.
Oh no. I gotta know.

Maybe I should go my way right now.
In my heart I know the score.
But once I’m gone there’s no turning back.
So, I’ve got to be sure.
