Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's a boy I know, he's the one I dream of (He's the one I dream of)
Looks into my eyes, takes me to the clouds above
Ooh, I lose control, can't seem to get enough (Can't seem to get enough)
When I wake from dreaming, tell me, is it really love?
[Verse 2]
Ooh, how will I know? (Don't trust your feelings)
How will I know?
How will I know? (Love can be deceiving)
How will I know?
[Verse 3]
How will I know if he really loves me?
I say a prayer with every heart beat
I fall in love whenever we meet
I'm asking you 'cause you know about these things
How will I know?
How will I know?
[Verse 4]
Oh, wake me, I'm shaking
I wish I had you near me now (Wish I had you near me now)
Said there's no mistakin'
What I feel is really love
[Verse 5]
Ooh, tell me
How will I know? (Don't trust your feelings)
How will I know?
How will I know? (Love can be deceiving)
How will I know?
[Verse 6]
How will I know if he really loves me?
I say a prayer with every heart beat
I fall in love whenever we meet
I'm asking you what you know about these things
[Verse 7]
How will I know?
How will I know?
How will I know?
How will I know?
[Verse 8]
If he loves me
If he loves me not
If he loves me
If he loves me not
If he loves me
If he loves me not
Oh, how will I know?
[Verse 9]
How will I know if he really loves me?
I say a prayer with every heart beat
I fall in love whenever we meet
I'm asking you what you know about these things
[Verse 10]
How will I know?
How will I know?
How will I know?
How will I know?
