I WISH YOU KNEW Artist: Mariah Carey Album: The Emancipation of Mimi Year: 2005 I've got to see you Wherever you are And I've got to be there I'm wishing on stars I've got to reveal what's inside of my heart But the words escape me And I'm paralyzed So helpless when I Look into your eyes [chorus] And how I wish you only knew What I feel inside for you You probably haven't got a clue But I wish you knew How I love you, baby Honestly, I know it's silly of me To want you so badly But keep it concealed See my inferiority complex kicks in And the words escape me And I'm paralyzed So helpless when I Look into your eyes [chorus] And how I wish you only knew What I feel inside for you You probably haven't got a clue But I wish you knew How I love you, baby [spoken] I don't if anybody outside there tonight Who knows what it feels like To love somebody so bad That nothing and nobody Can ever seem to fill out that void That is the situation that I'm talking about right now And if you feel me Sing the song with me Come on [chorus] And how I wish you only knew What I feel inside for you You probably haven't got a clue But I wish you knew How I love you, baby
