Lyrics
I gotta know what's your secret
I am eager to discover your secret.
I gotta know where you keep it
I want to know where you keep whatever is being referred to.
Cause it's causing a major reaction
Whatever it is, it's causing a significant emotional response.
And driving me to distraction
It's so compelling that it's diverting my attention and focus.
You've got a way of making me feel insane, but
Your actions or behavior make me feel crazy or overwhelmed.
I don't think that you do it on purpose
The assumption is that this effect is unintentional on your part.
But I've gotta know
Repetition of the urgency to know.
I've gotta know
-I've gotta know
-I've gotta know
-I've gotta know
-I've gotta know
-I gotta know where this is going
I want to understand the direction or outcome of a situation.
It drives me crazy not knowing
The uncertainty is causing distress or frustration.
Sometimes it's off, then it's on
Describing fluctuations or inconsistency in the situation.
It's like you're here then you're gone
Expressing the ephemeral nature of your presence.
You've got a way of making me feel insane, but
Similar to line 6, reiterating the impact on the speaker's mental state.
I don't think that you do it on purpose
Reaffirmation that the perceived impact is not intentional.
But I've gotta know
Continued emphasis on the imperative need to know.
I've gotta know
-I've gotta know
-I've gotta know
-I've gotta know
-I've gotta know
-Is it something that I can't see
Questioning if there is something hidden or not apparent.
I've gotta know, I've gotta know
Reiteration of the urgency to know.
Is it living inside of me
Suggesting the possibility of an internal, personal impact.
I've gotta know, I've gotta know
Repetition of the urgency to know regarding internal impact.
Is this real or just a dream
Questioning the reality of the situation, pondering if it's a dream.
I've gotta know, I've gotta know
Reiteration of the urgency to determine reality.
Is it that hard to believe
Asking if it's challenging for the other person to believe the speaker's concerns.
I've gotta know, I've gotta know
Repetition of the urgency to know, emphasizing the difficulty of belief.
