All I Want to Know Lyrics

All I want to know is do you still want me?
And, if not so, why do you still haunt me
Like a song, like a ghost, all night long?
That's almost all I want to know

All I want to know is can I still need you?
Are we still go, or did I misread you?
I won't settle for less
And that's not yet, I'll confess, all I want to know

I want to know now, on your mother's grave
Is there nothing, nohow, left to save?
Be brave
Tell me tonight, or not at all
We don't have to fight, I can make last call
And play a little pinball

All I want to know is, you don't, do you?
Call me slow, but I can't see through you
Count to ten, tell me then
Will you love me again?

(Count to ten, tell me then)
(Will you love me again?)
Is all I want to know

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 [?]
