I Wanna Know Lyrics

I want to know, babe, I want to know, babe
I want to know babe if I want to stay with you
If I want to stay with you

I've got my mind made up about you, babe
I could give you a love so true
But only you, babe, I said, babe, you know me

I've known a girl or two before, babe
Yet there is no girl I want more
I'm living for you babe, I said, babe, alright

I want to know, baby, I want to know
Say, I want to know, babe
Say, I want to know, babe
Let's get to talking, babe

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Boy meets girl, wants to know if he should stay with her because he's made up his mind she's the one for him. Boy's starting position and subsequent line of questioning appear inconsistent and unclear. Girl could do better.
