Do I Really Wanna Know? Songtext
Do I really wanna know why?
Do you really wanna go before we′ve said goodbye?
'Cause you know I thought you were kidding
When you told me you′re beginning
To behold me in a very different light
Do I really wanna know why?
Do I really wanna slow it down when I'm gunning for a fight?
'Cause you know I thought you were joking
When you said I was provoking
All the things you tried so hard to leave behind
You wanna run away
Won′t you try to stay instead?
′Cause you know I thought you were kidding
When you told me you're beginning
To behold me in a very different light
I was a forbidden fruit, you had an appetite
Gave you permission to loot your way through paradise
Lost some friends on the way because we didn′t play nice
(Oh honey!)
You changed the locks on the door and took things underground
Chained both my feet to the floor, and headed for the clouds
Couldn't stop crying before but now I don′t make a sound
You wanna run away
Won't you try to stay instead?
We′re a familiar crime, we left some fingerprints
Now I bask in the light of your indifference
Guess you cleaned up well before you left the scene
But baby, honey, darling you could leave,
Yeah you could try to make believe you never met me
You can pretend, you can't forget
You wanna run away
Won't you try to stay instead?
′Cause you know I thought you were joking
When you said I was provoking all the things you tried so
Hard to leave behind
So take me down to the place where you met her
Smile on your face says she′s younger
Scars on my heart say I'm wiser
So take me down to the place where she found you
Hiding ′cause I terrified you
When I said I can't live without you
So do I really wanna know why?
Do you really wanna go before we′ve said goodbye?
'Cause you know I thought you were kidding
When you told me you′re beginning to
Behold me in a very different light
You wanna run away
Won't you try to stay instead?
Do you really wanna go before we′ve said goodbye?
'Cause you know I thought you were kidding
When you told me you′re beginning
To behold me in a very different light
Do I really wanna know why?
Do I really wanna slow it down when I'm gunning for a fight?
'Cause you know I thought you were joking
When you said I was provoking
All the things you tried so hard to leave behind
You wanna run away
Won′t you try to stay instead?
′Cause you know I thought you were kidding
When you told me you're beginning
To behold me in a very different light
I was a forbidden fruit, you had an appetite
Gave you permission to loot your way through paradise
Lost some friends on the way because we didn′t play nice
(Oh honey!)
You changed the locks on the door and took things underground
Chained both my feet to the floor, and headed for the clouds
Couldn't stop crying before but now I don′t make a sound
You wanna run away
Won't you try to stay instead?
We′re a familiar crime, we left some fingerprints
Now I bask in the light of your indifference
Guess you cleaned up well before you left the scene
But baby, honey, darling you could leave,
Yeah you could try to make believe you never met me
You can pretend, you can't forget
You wanna run away
Won't you try to stay instead?
′Cause you know I thought you were joking
When you said I was provoking all the things you tried so
Hard to leave behind
So take me down to the place where you met her
Smile on your face says she′s younger
Scars on my heart say I'm wiser
So take me down to the place where she found you
Hiding ′cause I terrified you
When I said I can't live without you
So do I really wanna know why?
Do you really wanna go before we′ve said goodbye?
'Cause you know I thought you were kidding
When you told me you′re beginning to
Behold me in a very different light
You wanna run away
Won't you try to stay instead?
