After All Of These Things

i can listen to what you have to say when you say it
i can take the look in your eyes...and try to understand it
i can dream that i will know what i need to know to love you
i can sleep and see you in a dream

but after all of these things
i don't really know you
i only know i want you
but i won't ask you anything at all

i can read between your lines in line when you say it
i can see your body language...and try to understand it
i can feel like i must be the one from all the things i see of you
i can wake and remember the dream

but after all of these things
i don't really know you
i only know i want you
but i won't ask you anything at all

there is something hidden
maybe i don't want to know
maybe goodbye doesn't really mean hello

but after all of these things
i don't really know you
i only know i want you
but i won't ask you anything at all
