I need to know

Still some sort of mystery how we cannot connect
Any other way than how we do when we late night connect
I don't want to end up seeing you in ways you might regret
But I don't have much to go on when I'm trying to reflect

So I think that you could benefit from being more direct
Because I kinda need a signal or something to that effect
And, I get it might be hard for you discussing this subject
Let me ask you these two questions, and no answer’s incorrect

Let me know
Did I go too slow?
Play too many cards I shouldn't show?
I need to know you know
How I'm tryna have this thing go

I hate to keep insisting, but just so you know
I would be remiss if I don't tell you so I cannot read your mind, girl, just so you know
I need to know that you know, that you know, that you know

I don't know if I've communicated everything I meant
Cause when talking to your body, seems like words ain't worth a shit
But I'm not sure if you're going to get the full of my intent
So I'm trying to show you what I mean with moves and confidence

But I'm stuck beneath the surface with my words and discontent
'Cuz you’re something sort of perfect, and it seems like common sense
But the thing about us talking is inflection makes me trip
Gets me thinking about the ways all the subtexting makes me slip

Let me know
Did I go too slow?
Play too many cards I shouldn't show?
I need to know you know, how I'm tryna have this thing go

I hate to keep insisting, but, just so you know
I would be remiss if I don't tell you so
I cannot read your mind, girl, just so you know
I need to know that you know, that you know, that you know
