You ought to know by now,

Love is the look in my eye;

Lovin' the way you smile when I say,

"I wish you would stay."

You bring out all the youth in me,

I laugh and cry out all the truth in me,

Out o' love.

You should know by now.



Haven't you felt by now

Just what it's like to be loved;

Knowin' that certain touch when you're sure

Time won't give you more.

You bring out all the best in my;

I wanna hold you till you feel the need somehow

Somehow;

You should know by now



If I could just find the words,

I wouldn't be left so lonely;

I'm your one, my only.

Then I'd show you how

Ev'ry move as smooth as silk,

Say you will; say you will.



Hasn't it crossed your mind

Haven't you known all the time

Honestly tell me now,

Has it shown?

How much love is grown;

The way I tremble at the sight of you.

I want to learn to love you through and through,

This I'll beg.

You should know by now,

Hmm-mmm.



By now.

You should know by now,

Don't you think you should know by now?

Ooh
