Can I Get to Know You Lyrics by Betty Everett

0

[Intro]
(Can I get to know you?
Can I get to know you?
Ooh, ooh)

[Verse 1]
Everybody says "Be strong" but I just can't take it
Every time I look at you, I feel funny inside
I've been meanin' to ask you this for such a long, long time

[Refrain]
Oh, honey
Can I get to know you better? Mm-hmm

[Verse 2]
I know that you think of me as just a friend
But you don't know how friendly I can be, yeah
I want so much to prove my love, just give me half a chance

[Refrain]
Oh, honey
Can I get to know you better?

[Bridge]
Now, I don't think I could go another day without you
And one little kiss will tell me what I wanna know about you
It ain't gonna hurt you

[Xylophone Solo]
(All I wanna shoop-shoop
All I wanna shoop-shoop
All I wanna shoop-shoop
All I wanna shoop-shoop)

[Verse 3]
I dream about you every night
Won't you make my dream come true?

[Outro]
Oh, honey
Can I get to know you better? oh, yeah
Oh, honey
Can I get to know you better? oh, yeah
Oh, honey
Can I get to know you better?
