lyrics

I know what you're thinking
I know what you are
I know you're all ready to go
I know you're already a star
But, baby, please take it easy on me
Have a little time to spare
I'm your stepping stone and I'll end up alone
Just give me some time to prepare

I wish I didn't know where you go when you go
But I know where you been, I know
I wish I didn't know where you go when you go
Cause I know you're with them, I know
I wish I didn't know

I know which way you're going
Cause I'm where you been
I know you can't take it slow
I know I'll never know you again

So, baby, please take it easy on me
Have a little time to spare
I'll go from helping hand to just another fan
Just give me some time to prepare

I wish I didn't know where you go when you go
But I know where you been, I know
I wish I didn't know where you go when you go
Cause I know you're with them, I know
I wish I didn't know

Your new friends will steal your old friends' girlfriends
Your new friends will fuck your old friends' girlfriends
Your new friends will fuck you over

I wish I didn't know where you go when you go
But I know where you been, I know
I wish I didn't know where you go when you go
Cause I know you're with them, I know
I wish I didn't know
