I Thought You Should Know Lyrics

I been watchin� you watchin� me
I could feel your eyes from way across the room
But now that I�m holdin� you close I can see
Ain�t no way I�m gonna get around you
I won�t tell you I don�t need you tonight
I won�t pretend I ain�t burnin� inside
Your skin glowin� soft in the silver moonlight
The shadows where the promises hide
The bittersweet taste of your kiss
It�s all more than I can resist

If you�re thinkin� �bout breakin� my heart
You might as well just pick up your little black dress and go
Somebody else already tore it apart
And I thought you should know

Maybe this is all that you want
Maybe you�re just as lonesome as me
A shoulder that you can cry on
A warm safe place you can be
Someone to call in the middle of the night
When the ghosts in your bedroom won�t rest
Two arms to hold you tight
I promise that I�ll do my best
To give you everything I got to give
And keep your secrets for as long as I live
