Lyrics and translation
Original
I've been up and down. I've been all around.
I was mystified, almost terrified.
But late at night, I still hear you call my name.
I've been on my own. I've been all alone.
I was hypnotized, I felt paralyzed.
But late at night, I still want you just the same.
I've been a gambler, but I'm nobody's fool.
And I sure know something, sure know something.
You showed me things they never taught me in school.
And I sure know something, sure know something.
No one can make me feel the way that you do. And I sure know something, oh.
I was seventeen. You were just a dream.
I was mesmerized, I felt scared inside.
You broke my heart and I still can feel the pain.
I've been counted out. I've had fear and doubt.
I've been starry-eyed, never satisfied.
'Cause late at night, I still need you just the same, just the same.
I've been a gambler, but I'm nobody's fool.
And I sure know something, sure know something.
You showed me things they never taught me in school.
And I sure know something, sure know something.
No one can make me feel the way that you do. And I sure know something, oh.
Oh.
Oh. Oh. Oh.
I've been counted out. I've had fear and doubt.
I've been starry-eyed, never satisfied.
'Cause late at night, I still need you just the same, just the same. Yeah.
I've been a gambler, but I'm nobody's fool.
And I sure know something, sure know something. You showed me things they never taught me in school.
And I sure know something, sure know something.
No one can make me feel the way that you do.
And I sure know something, sure know something.
No one can tell me till I hear it from you.
And I sure know something, sure know something. I've been a gambler, but I'm nobody's fool.
Sure know something, sure know something.
You showed me things they never taught me in school.
Sure know something, sure know something.
No one can make me feel the way that you do
