Only You Know And I Know Lyrics


Phil Collins Only You Know And I Know


We know you really only wanna hear
the things we like to say
But if I say to you
"please don't do it"
you do it anyway

Sometimes I know we gotta be cruel
be cruel to be kind
When I ask you what you see in me
you say our love is blind

(chorus)
Cause only you know and I know
the things we mean to say
Only you know and I know
the things we mean to say

Whenever I think I know you better
better than I know myself
I open up and give you everything
then you just say "OK, what else?"

And when I run away you always cry
you always over react
But I don't know if you
know how you really feel
But you better know before I get back

(chorus)

Just try to remember
now I'm the one you love
You told me, ooh try to remember
I'm the one you're always thinking of
You told me, please try to remember
Before I walk away
Remember it's not good enough
telling me the way it was yesterday

(instrumental)

(chorus 2x)

Only you know and I know...

(repeat to fade)
