Lyrics Only You Know and I Know - 2016 Remaster - Phil Collins

You know, we really only wanna hear the things we like to say
But if I said to you, "Please don't do it", you'd do it anyway
Sometimes I know we gotta be cruel, be cruel to be kind
But when I ask you what you see in me, you say, "Our love is blind"

'Cause only you know, and I know the things we need to say
Only you know, and I know the things we need to say

Whenever I think I know you better, better than I know myself
I open up, give you everything, then you say, "Okay, what else?"
And when I run away, you always cry, you always overreact
But I don't know if you know how you really feel, but you better know before I get back

'Cause only you know, and I know the things we need to say
Only you know, and I know the things we need to say

Just try to remember now I'm the one you love
You told me, ooh, try to remember, I'm the one you're always thinking of
You told me, "Please try to remember before I walk away"
Remember, it's not good enough telling me the way it was yesterday

'Cause only you know, and I know the things we need to say
Only you know, and I know the things we need to say

Only you know, and I know the things we need to say
Only you know, and I know the things we need to say

Only you know and I know

Only you know and I know
