"I Need to Know" is a sad song from Tarzan: The Musical. It is sung by a Young Tarzan when he is left alone in shame.
Earlier, it is sung by Phil Collins (still in Young Tarzan's point of view) in Tarzan II.
Lyrics[]
Can someone tell me where I belong
Where I should go?
Can someone show me where I'm going wrong?
I need to know
Why do I hurt the ones I love
With everything I do?
If I can't be what they want of me
Then what am I to do?
I can't go home (I can't go home)
Oh, this much I know (This much I know)
It might be better if I just disappeared
Alone
I've got to find my way (Got to find my way)
Oh, and I will survive some way (I will survive my way)
If only there was a place where I could be just me
If only there was a place where I could be just me
Young Tarzan: Will someone tell me where I belong,
Where I should go?
Can someone tell me where I'm going wrong?
I need to know.
Why would I hurt the ones I love?
Why would I hurt you?
If I can't see what he wants of me,
What am I to do?
When will I be me,
The son that he can see?
There must be somebody who understands out there
Somewhere.
When will I find hope?
A place where I belong.
Surely there must be more like me out there
Somewhere.
There must be somebody just like me
Out there.
