I Know You Know

A new all-time favorite song of mine, by Esperanza Spalding.  Love and admire this lady so much!

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

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

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 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

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
