How much I do
'Cause you don't even suspect
Do need you
How much I do
If only you knew
How much I do
Do need you
Just never seem to come out right
If only you knew

A thousand times
How much I do
I dream of moments we share
How much I do
Could prob'ly care less
How much I do
Do love you
Do need you
Do love you
If only you knew
If only you knew
No, you don't even suspect
How much I do
I'm living in a fantasy
How much I do
Do love you
But when I get up the nerve
If only you knew
To tell you, the words
Do love you
But you're not there
If only you knew
If only you knew
About the changes I've been going through
Until I had them memorized
Could prob'ly care less
I must have rehearsed my lines
If only you knew
About the changes I've been going through
Songwriters: Cynthia De Mari Biggs, Kenneth Gamble, Dexter Wansel
