 Lyrics:
 
 I've seen you twice, in a short time
 Only a week since we started
 It seems to me, for every time
 I'm getting more open-hearted
 
 I was an impossible case
 No one ever could reach me
 But I think I can see in your face
 There's a lot you can teach me
 So I wanna know
 
 What's the name of the game
 Does it mean anything to you
 What's the name of the game
 Can you feel it the way I do
 Tell me please, 'cause I have to know
 I'm a bashful child, beginning to grow
 
 And you make me talk
 And you make me feel
 And you make me show
 What I'm trying to conceal
 If I trust in you, would you let me down
 Would you laugh at me
 If I said I care for you
 Could you feel the same way too
 I wanna know
 
 I have no friends, no one to see
 And I am never invited
 Now I am here, talking to you
 No wonder I get excited
 
 Your smile, and the sound of your voice
 And the way you see through me
 Got a feeling, you give me no choice
 But it means a lot to me
 So I wanna know
