I Wanna Know You
[Intro]
Hoo-hoo-hoo, oh, oh
Oh girl, yes

[Verse 1]
I'm looking out through my picture window, yeah
And there you were shining like the sun
I thought to myself, "Oh, I really wanna know her"
So what can I do 'cause I don't wanna come on too strong

[Pre-Chorus]
But I don't know what else I'm supposed to do
When I want you so bad
Maybe it's wrong for me to approach you
But I'm just gonna take that chance

[Chorus]
Before you walk on by (Before you walk by)
I wanna know you (I wanna know you)
Like a love song played by heart
I wanna know you

[Verse 2]
I can find what I'm gonna say the moment, yeah
Until we both know the time is right
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause my imagination is running wild
Every time you walk by my window
And I just can't seem to shake this feeling
And I'll go crazy if I don't get to know you right now

[Chorus]
Before you walk on by (Yeah)
I wanna know you (I wanna know you, baby)
Like a love song played by heart
I wanna know you (Like a love song)
Before we take this flight (We take this flight, baby)
Girl, I wanna know you (I wanna know you)
Like a bird knows how to fly (Oh, oh, oh)
I wanna know you

[Bridge]
Can I get, can I get to know you?
(Can I get to know you, baby? Yeah, yeah)
Can I get, can I get to know you?
I wanna know

[Pre-Chorus]
My imagination is running wild
Every time you walk by window
And I can't seem to shake this feeling
And I'll go crazy if I don't get to know you right now
Now, now, now, baby
No, no
Break it down for me one time, yes, oh yes
Make it so sweet, yeah
[Chorus]
Before you walk on by
I wanna know you
(Before you walk on by, baby, I wanna know you)
Like a love song played by heart
(A love song played by heart)
I wanna know you
Before we take this flight (Hoo-hoo)
Girl, I wanna know you (Oh, my baby)
Like a bird knows how to fly (Can I get to know you?)
I wanna know you (Yeah, yeah)

[Outro]
Before you walk on by (Oh girl)
I wanna know you (I wanna know you, baby)
Like a love song played by heart
(Like a love song played by heart)
I wanna know you
I wanna know you, I wanna know you
(I wanna know you)
I need to know you, know you, know you now, baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh-hoo-hoo
(I wanna know you)
Before you walk on by (I need to know, baby)
I wanna know you (Oh, but what am I supposed to do?)
Like a love song played by heart (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I wanna know you
Before we take this flight
I wanna know you
Like a bird knows how to fly
I wanna know you
Before you walk on by
I wanna know you
Like a love song played by heart
