Lyrics
Something You Should Know
Words & Music by Ken Gilmer & Meet the Next
You see me as your shoulder to cry on
When he ignores what you say
But I can?t just be the third wheel on this broken ride
I?ve got to tell you ?there?s something you should know?
You never seem too happy but you just keep on laughing
Afraid to ask if there is something more
I can hear him lying, and I see you crying
And I wonder just what you?re waiting for
But I know you and it doesn?t have to be this way
Take a chance, spread your wings, come fly away
We?ve been friends for such a long time
But I see you as so much more
I can make all your dreams come true
I?ll always love you and that?s something you should know
Lead Break
He makes you feel like crying and there ain?t no denying
You should be headed straight towards the door
But I know you and it doesn?t have to be this way
Take a chance, spread your wings, come fly away
We?ve been friends for such a long time
But I see you as so much more
I can make all your dreams come true
I?ll always love you and that?s something you should know
And that?s something you should know
And that?s something you should know
And that?s something you should know
