to the new love of my life

i think its an age of discovery. i think its a time of knowledge. i think its a time of unearthing.

i don't know you a lot about you, just bits and pieces of stories and scattered whispers. i do not know much about your childhood, or the past you lived through. i wasn't there when you scraped your knee on the pavement, or when you took your first step. i never experienced the childhood you had, or most of the places you've been too. so let me in, show me pandora's box. allow me to immerse myself in the colorful chapters that you call your own. permit me to grasp in my hand the things that made you who you are.

[Verse 1:]
There's a place in your heart where nobody's been.
Take me there.
Things nobody knows, not even your friends.
Take me there.
Tell me about your momma, your daddy, your home town, show me around.
I wanna see it all, don't leave anything out.

[Chorus:]
I wanna know, everything about you.
And I wanna go, down every road you've been.
Where your hopes and dreams and wishes live, where you keep the rest of your life hid.
I wanna know the girl behind that pretty stare.
Take me there.

[Verse 2:]
Your first real kiss, your first true love, you were scared.
Show me where.
You learned about life, spent your summer nights, without a care.
Take me there.
I wanna roll down mainstreet and backroads like you did when you were a kid.
What makes you who you are, tell me what your story is.

[Chorus 2x:]
I wanna know, everything about you.
And I wanna go, down every road you've been.
Where your hopes and dreams and wishes live, where you keep the rest of your life hid.
I wanna know the girl behind that pretty stare.
Take me there.

I wanna roll down mainstreet.
I wanna know your hopes and your dreams.
Take me, take me there.
Yeah.
