[Verse 1]
You caught my attention the moment you spoke
And that was the first thing I noticed
You told me your name, I said it was gorgeous
And that was simply a bonus
I admired your complexion
Definition of infectious
The glow of your eyes, shine so bright
More than what is on your necklace
I bet how I'm feeling is evident
I've never seen such elegance
I gotta get it together
I bet my emotions are clouding my etiquette (baby)
I hope you understand what I'm feeling
This isn't me, I don't know what the deal is
This isn't lust, it's more than appealing
It's buried inside, I wanna conceal it
But you gotta know!

[Pre-Hook]
You gotta, you gotta know (x4)
I hope you understand what I'm feeling
This isn't me, I don't know what the deal is
This isn't lust, it's more than appealing
It's buried inside, I wanna conceal it
But you gotta know!

[Verse Two:]
I am not thinking 'bout taking you home
'cause that is not how I was raised
I know that your mind and your body's a temple
I'm not tryna give it the praise
I'd rather give you my word
I wanna get to know ya, not tryna be a casanova
I want you to tell your girls this is different
And then when they meet me
You tell 'em "I told ya!"
I wanna know all your favorites
I wanna know who you engage with
I wanna write you a song, record it
And let you put it on your playlist
I hope you understand what I'm feeling
This isn't me, I don't know what the deal is
This isn't lust, it's more than appealing
It's buried inside, I wanna conceal it
But you gotta know!

[Pre-Hook]
You gotta, you gotta know (x4)
I hope you understand what I'm feeling
This isn't me, I don't know what the deal is
This isn't lust, it's more than appealing
It's buried inside, I wanna conceal it
But you gotta know!

[Ending]
I bet how I'm feeling is evident, I've never seen such elegance
I gotta get it together, I bet my emotions are
Clouding my etiquette
I hope you understand what I'm feeling
This isn't me, I don't know what the deal is
This isn't lust, it's more than appealing
It's buried inside, I wanna conceal it
But you gotta know!

You gotta, you gotta know (x8)
