Lyrics
"You Shouldn't Even Know About That" (Duet Version)
[Intro - soft, playful]
Singer 1: How'd you know that?
Singer 2 (smiling): I was gonna ask you the same...
?
[Verse 1 - trade lines]
Singer 1: You laughed before I said the line
Singer 2: You knew the joke before the time
Singer 1: I never told that to a soul
Singer 2: Still somehow I already know
Singer 1: You saw me drift in a crowded room
Singer 2: You felt me leave before I moved
Singer 1: I keep that side of me intact...
Singer 2: You shouldn't even know about that
?
[Pre-Chorus - harmony builds]
Singer 1: I never said it out loud
Singer 2: I never tried to break through
Both: But every hidden piece I kept... somehow led me to you
?
[Chorus - both, strong harmony]
You shouldn't even know about that
The way I think, the way I act
Every little hidden piece of me
Like you found it in the cracks
Yeah it's wild, yeah it's right
Like you've known me my whole life
Every secret I thought I had
You shouldn't even know about that
?
[Post-Chorus - call & response]
Singer 1: How'd you see what I never show?
Singer 2: I don't know, I just... know
Both: (How'd we know, how'd we know like that?)
?
[Verse 2 - trade, deeper connection]
Singer 2: You play that song when you can't sleep
Singer 1 (surprised): That stays with me, that's mine to keep
Singer 2: You trace those thoughts you never say
Singer 1: You read my silence anyway
Singer 2: You guard your heart but leave a trace
Singer 1: You saw right through my careful space
Singer 2: Like every wall I built just cracked...
Singer 1: You shouldn't even know about that
?
[Pre-Chorus - swapped energy]
Singer 2: I didn't mean to see so deep
Singer 1: But you found parts I couldn't keep
Both: And everything I tried to hide... was right there in plain sight
?
[Chorus - bigger, layered]
You shouldn't even know about that
The way I think, the way I act
Every little hidden piece of me
Like you found it in the cracks
Yeah it's wild, yeah it's right
Like you've known me my whole life
Every secret I thought I had
You shouldn't even know about that
?
[Bridge - stripped, intimate back-and-forth]
Singer 1 (soft): Maybe love ain't breaking in
Singer 2: Maybe it's just noticing
Singer 1: All the things we tried to hide
Singer 2: Were never really out of sight
Singer 1: You see me clear...
Singer 2: Like I've been here...
Both (quiet harmony): The whole time
?
[Build - overlapping lines]
Singer 1: Every secret--
Singer 2: Every shadow--
Singer 1: Every "don't let go that far"--
Singer 2: Every hidden who-you-are--
?
[Final Chorus - full duet, anthemic]
You shouldn't even know about that
Every dream I never said out loud
Every scar I covered up somehow
You're the one who figured out
Yeah it's wild, yeah it's right
Like you've known me my whole life
Every secret I thought I had
You shouldn't even know about that
?
[Outro - soft, resolving]
Singer 1: You shouldn't even know...
Singer 2: But I'm glad I do...
Both: Yeah... I'm glad it's you
