I Thought You Should Know Lyrics

I Thought You Should Know
By Steve Earle

I been watchin?? you watchin?? me, I could feel your eyes from way across the room
But now that I??m holdin?? you close I can see ain??t no way I??m gonna get around you
I won??t tell you I don??t need you tonight, I won??t pretend I ain??t burnin?? inside
Your skin glowin?? soft in the silver moonlight, the shadows where the promises hide
The bittersweet taste of your kiss, it??s all more than I can resist
Chorus:
If you??re thinkin?? ??bout breakin?? my heart
You might as well just pick up your little black dress and go
Somebody else already tore it apart
And I thought you should know
Maybe this is all that you want, maybe you??re just as lonesome as me
A shoulder that you can cry on, a warm safe place you can be
Someone to call in the middle of the night when the ghosts in your bedroom won??t rest
Two arms to hold you tight, I promise that I??ll do my best
To give you everything I got to give and keep your secrets for as long as I live
