If You Only Knew Lyrics

Refrain:
If you only knew all the things I feel for you
Boy, I want you in my life; I can't deny
If you only knew all the things I'm going through..
Tryin' to hide what I feel inside 'bout you and I

Lately, it's you, baby, driving me crazy
So what are we gonna do about this love?
Tell me: what do you see when I come around you?
Boy, you give me joy

Refrain

If you only, if you only

Sometimes, when I'm alone
I wanna let go and call you up on the phone
To let you know how hard it's been
Holding in this feeling for you

If only you knew...

Refrain

Do you acknowledge me?
I really need to now
Gotta know
Wanna know
We've been friends for some time now
And I want more, so much more!

If only you knew...

Refrain x 2

Boy, I'm not playing games, and I hope you feel the same...

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
