Text: Esperanza Spalding. Esperanza. I Know You Know.

The way
You look at me
When you think
I'm not looking....
Tells me....
Your heart's
A sleeping giant
Worn out
By someone
You loved before me.
I see you're scared
Unconvinced by
What I've tried to say;
That I am yours
And that nothing
Will take me away.


I know that you know
But I'll sing it again;
I love you babe
And nothing
Will take me away ........... (x2)


The way
You always call me
With some question....
And every time
Try to pretend
You didn't call me
Just ?cause
I was on your mind.
Too soon for you
To say out loud
But I know.
You love me
And though
We don't say it
Already shows.

I know that you know
But I'll sing it again;
I love you babe
And nothing
Will take me away.
You already know
But I'll sing it again;
I love you babe
And nothing
Will take me away.
I know that you know
But I'll sing it again;
I love you babe
And nothing
Will take me away.
You already know
But I'll sing it again;
I love you babe

And nothing
Will take me away.

I wait for you
To open up.
But, it's not a bore.
You're just
What I've been
Looking for.
Why do you keep
Your head in the sand?
Whoever
You loved before me
That ran's
Nothing like me...
Nothing like me...
Nothing like me...

I know that you know
But I'll sing it again;
I love you babe
And nothing
Will take me away.
You already know
But I'll sing it again;
I love you babe
And nothing
Will take me away.
I know that you know
But I'll sing it again;
I love you babe
And nothing
Will take me away.
You already know
But I'll sing it again;
I love you babe
And nothing
Will take me away.

The way you look at me
When you think
I'm not looking.
The way you call me up
Just to see
What's cooking.
The way you look at me
When you think
I'm not looking.
I look at you
That way too
You just don't know
That I do.

I know that you know
You already know
