Didn’t You Know Lyrics by Patrice Rushen

Patrice

1978

[Intro]
Oooooh Oooooh
Nah na- nah

[Verse 1]
Seems like only yesterday
I could reach and touch the stars
And the love that built my life
Was a part of what was ours
It was me who fell in love
It was you who didn't know

[Hook]
You never knew
How I felt about you

[Verse 2]
(You) Used to tell me all the things
Only closest friends would share (oooah)
And you never thought of once
Just how much I really cared
Well I know if you had looked
You'd have seen me waiting there

[Hook]
Now I must say
Why I'm feeling this way

[Chorus]
Oh didn't you know (Love is always waiting at your door)
Oh didn't you know (Don't just waste that asking on no-one)
Oh didn't you know (Love is always waiting at your door)

[Bridge]
(Love is never far away) Don't you know I love you
(Listen and you'll hear it say) Just look right behind you
(I know what you're looking for) If you really can't too
(Love is waiting at the door) You might find I need you

[Verse 3]
Now I find within my life
There is still empty space, woah
'Cause the love I've waited for
May have found another place
But I know if you just look
You will see me standing there

[Hook]
Why can't you see
That I'm holding the key

[Chorus] (Repeat until end/fade-out)
Oh didn't you know (Love is always waiting at your door)
Oh didn't you know (Don't just waste that asking on no-one)
Oh didn't you know (Love is always waiting at your door)
