Goo Goo Dollsis an alternative rock band formed in 1985 in Buffalo, New York by guitarist/vocalist John Rzeznik and bassist/vocalist Robby Takac. They are perhaps most famous for the hit "Iris", featured on the soundtrack to the 1998 film City of Angels. Currently, the band consists of John Rzeznik (guitar, vocals), Robby Takac (vocals, bass) and Mike Malinin (drums). Early in their career, the Goo Goo Dolls were frequently dismissed by critics as mere imitators of the Replacements; however, the band refined and mainstreamed their sound enough to become one of the most popular adult alternative rock bands of the latter half of the '90s, selling millions of records to audiences largely unfamiliar with their inspirations. That's no knock on the band, either -- their music simply improved in craft and accessibility as the years progressed, and radio happened to be receptive to what a decade earlier would have been considered collegiate power pop.

I Don’t Want To Know Lyrics
Goo Goo Dolls
I dont want to know the reasons why love keeps
Right on walking on down the line
I dont understand you and me
Baby, i, I just want you to be mine
Finally baby
The truth has come down now
And now ya listen to your spirit
Its crying out loud now
Tryin to believe yeah
You say you love me, but you dont know
You got me rocking and a-reeling
Oh
I dont want to know the reasons why love keeps
Right on walking on down the line
I dont understand you and me
Baby, i, I just want you to be mine
Wont you to be mine?
Finally baby
The truth has been told
And now you tell me that Im crazy
Now its nothing that I didnt know
Tryin to survive now
You say you love me, but you dont know
You got me rocking and a-reeling
Oh
I dont want to know the reasons why love keeps
Right on walking on down the line
I dont understand you and me
Baby, i, I just want you to be mine
Make you to be mine

Tryin to believe in
You say you love me, but you dont know
You got me rocking and a-reeling
Oh

Right on walking on down the line

Gonna make you to be mine
Wanna make you to be mine
Oh, wont you be mine, mine, mine
Wont you be mine
Wont you make up your mind?
