Gotta Tell You Lyrics
Your love for me came as a waterfall
Flowing inside me like never before
Your love for me
Something I didn't see
But baby, I know better now
When you walked in the room that very night
A special feeling just burst inside
It was only you
Nobody else
But baby, I know better now
Don't wanna love you if you don't love me
Don't wanna need you when you won't need me too
Don't wanna tell you this now but it wouldn't be right
If I didn't tell you this tonight
And now you're back inside my house again
I'm trying deeper to explain
'Cause baby I
Wanna get it on
And baby, you're the one for me
And now that I have got you all alone
After all this talking on the phone
I should be strong
There's nothing wrong
I'll tell you this is where you belong
Don't wanna love you if you don't love me
Don't wanna need you when you won't need me too
Don't wanna tell you this now but it wouldn't be right
If I didn't tell you this tonight
Don't wanna love you if you don't love me
Don't wanna need you when you won't need me too
Don't wanna tell you this now but it wouldn't be right
If I didn't tell you this tonight
It was just something in your eyes
That made me realize
Now I hear voices deep inside
Telling me, telling me it's you
Don't wanna love you if you don't love me
Don't wanna need you when you won't need me too
Don't wanna tell you this now but it wouldn't be right
If I didn't tell you this tonight
Don't wanna love you if you don't love me
Don't wanna need you when you won't need me too
Don't wanna tell you this now but it wouldn't be right
If I didn't tell you this tonight
Flowing inside me like never before
Your love for me
Something I didn't see
But baby, I know better now
A special feeling just burst inside
It was only you
Nobody else
But baby, I know better now
Don't wanna need you when you won't need me too
Don't wanna tell you this now but it wouldn't be right
If I didn't tell you this tonight
I'm trying deeper to explain
'Cause baby I
Wanna get it on
And baby, you're the one for me
After all this talking on the phone
I should be strong
There's nothing wrong
I'll tell you this is where you belong
Don't wanna need you when you won't need me too
Don't wanna tell you this now but it wouldn't be right
If I didn't tell you this tonight
Don't wanna need you when you won't need me too
Don't wanna tell you this now but it wouldn't be right
If I didn't tell you this tonight
That made me realize
Now I hear voices deep inside
Telling me, telling me it's you
Don't wanna need you when you won't need me too
Don't wanna tell you this now but it wouldn't be right
If I didn't tell you this tonight
Don't wanna need you when you won't need me too
Don't wanna tell you this now but it wouldn't be right
If I didn't tell you this tonight

This makes me cry as it reminds me of a sad times when i love someone so much but they did not even give me a second glance
Yeah, it is bittersweet to me too. I was so head over heels for this guy who liked me too but not in the same way. And I've always been proud so I wouldn't risk that much cause I was so aware that he was not for me...Love is too cruel sometimes and certainly not fair. Still this song was played during the best time of my life, a summer I won't forget when we were so close friends and I kind of knew he would break my heart, but I loved him and I still hold very strong feelings towards him after five and a half years.
Not a great song, but fun and poppy.
Pretty straightforward; narrator's all hot and bothered, but is being prudent enough to hold back in case her feelings aren't returned.
Great beat, very nice bridge. Good one-hit-wonder, (as it really is, considering she doubled as a sometimes-actress.)
Simple song about a girl who wants to express her feelings despite having obvious reservations and doubts in doing so. However, in saying that, she feels that she should, because otherwise she would regret it, if he did in fact feel the same.
@stagnate Yeah I think you described the meaning of this song quite well. I haven't listened to this song in 22 years, and it just randomly came up in my head today. Very nostalgic.

Meaningless teenybopper crap.
