Need To Know

(album: The Credit - 2015)

I wonder if you've cast a spell on me
You're always on my mind, you're all I see
I open up a book to get away
But your name's on every page
And it breaks my heart to think of you
And think of all the times I wanted to
Tell you that my heart raced for you
"Cause you are the one thing I can't have

And I need to know
(Tell me baby 'cause I need to know)
Was I the one who got away
Or just an obstacle in your way
Was I
(Tell me baby 'cause I need to know)
Was I the one who got away
Or just an obstacle in your way
(Tell me baby 'cause I need to know)
Was I the one who got away
Or just an obstacle in your way
Was I
(Tell me baby 'cause I need to know)
Was I the one who got away
Or were you glad I didn't stay

Wanna tell you about a dream I had
A funny dream but I woke up sad
Saw your face as clear as day
Though I haven't seen you in ages
I'll dial your number on my phone
I hope you'll pick up and be alone
I'll ask about the golden ring
And if you ever dream of me
Ever dream of me

And I need to know
(Tell me baby 'cause I need to know)
Was I the one who got away
Or just an obstacle in your way
Was I
(Tell me baby 'cause I need to know)
Was I the one who got away
Or just an obstacle in your way
I need to know
(Tell me baby 'cause I need to know)
Was I the one who got away
Or were you glad I didn't stay

Now is it just that we want what we can't have
Or is it that the grass is always greener
The dream of you much sweeter
I just can't seem to let go of the past
Not until I know how your heart beats
Beats when you see me

(Tell me baby 'cause I need to know)
Was I the one who got away
Or just an obstacle in your way
Was I
(Tell me baby 'cause I need to know)
Was I the one who got away
Or just an obstacle in your way
(Tell me baby 'cause I need to know)
Was I the one who got away
(Tell me baby 'cause I need to know)
Tell me baby was I was I

I'll hook up with a German guy who kind of looks like Michael Fassbender
Anything to get these crazy raging manic thoughts away from you
You'll find me in the bar, I'll be the one hitting hard on the bartender
'Cause when he leaned in I could tell he wore the same perfume as you
