I've been up and down
I've been all around
I was mystified
Almost terrified
But late at night I still hear you
Call my nameI've been on my own
I've been all alone
I was hypnotized
I felt paralyzed
You broke my heart and I still can
Feel the pain
I've been a gambler but I'm nobody's fool
And I sure know something, sure know something
You showed me things they never told me at school
And I sure know something, sure know something
No one can make me feel the way that you do
And I sure know something, uh huhI was seventeen
You were just a dream
I was mesmerized
I felt scared inside
You broke my heart and I still can
Feel the painI've been carried out
I've had fear and doubt
I've been starry eyed
Never satisfied
'Cause late at night I still need you
Just the same [(just the same)]
I've been a gambler but I'm nobody's fool
And I sure know something, sure know something
You showed me things they never told me at school
And I sure know something, sure know something
No one can make me feel the way that you do
And I sure know something, uh huhAah, aah, aah
Aah, aah, aah
Aah, aah, aah
Aah, aah, aahI've been carried out
I've had fear and doubt
I'v been starry eyed
Never satisfied
'Cause late at night I still need you
Just the same [(just the same)]
I've been a gambler but I'm nobody's fool
And I sure know something, sure know something
You showed me things they never told me at school
And I sure know something, sure know something
No one can make me feel the way that you do
No one can tell me till I hear it from you
