## Trivia

* Camila wrote the original lyrics in her notes on her phone a year and a half before she released it.
* The song was originally an interlude.
* Bibi Bourelly helped write the second part of the song.
* According with Camila, this was like the "first chapter" of *The Hurting. The Healing. The Loving.* album (now titled *Camila*) being *The Hurting* part.

## Composition and release

    Camila wrote the song while she was still touring with her then-group Fifth Harmony. It was the first song she created for the album, inspiring the direction of the project that was then called *The Hurting. The Healing. The Loving.* According to her, this was the first step of the album — being "The Hurting" part. However, it was later removed from the final track listing after the album's re-imagination. The song was the first chapter of her story. She considers it as “the kind of chapter you never want to read out loud”.

Lyrically, "I Have Questions" contains themes of abandonment and the acknowledgement that a former object of affection was not who they appeared to be. As the song title implies, the singer has many queries for the song's subject. When Cabello announced her debut studio album on social media, she revealed she began writing "I Have Questions" in a hotel bathroom while on tour in 2016, "I was completely broken during that time," she stated. was first featured as an intro on the music video for her first single "Crying In The Club",

The song was first featured as an intro on the music video for her debut single "Crying in the Club", and was later released to music stores and streaming services as a promotional single, with a lyric video released on May 22, 2017. Afterwards, the song was eventually scrapped from Camila's official debut album. However, it's featured as the thirteenth track on the Japan limited pressing of her 2018 album *Camila* as a bonus track.

## Lyrics

**[Verse 1]**

Why did you leave me here to burn?

I'm way too young to be this hurt

I feel doomed in hotel rooms

Staring straight up at the wall

Counting wounds and I am trying to numb them all

**[Pre-Chorus]**

Do you care, do you care?

Why don't you care?

I gave you all of me

My blood, my sweat, my heart, and my tears

Why don't you care, why don't you care?

I was there, I was there, when no one was

Now you're gone and I'm here

**[Chorus]**

(I have questions for you)

Number one, tell me who you think you are

You got some nerve trying to tear my faith apart

(I have questions for you)

Number two, why would you try and play me for a fool?

I should have never ever ever trusted you

(I have questions)

Number three, why weren't you, who you swore that you would be?

I have questions, I got questions haunting me

I have questions for you

I have questions, I have questions

I have questions for you

**[Verse 2]**

My, my name was safest in your mouth

And why'd you have to go, and spit it out?

Oh, your voice was the most familiar sound

But it sounds so dangerous to me now

**[Chorus]**

(I have questions for you)

Number one, tell me who you think you are

You got some nerve trying to tear my faith apart

(I have questions for you)

Number two, why would you try and play me for a fool?

I should have never, ever, ever trusted you

(I have questions for you)

(I have questions for you)

I have questions (I have questions for you)

(I have questions for you)

**[Bridge]**

Do you care, do you care?

Why don't you care?

I gave you all of me

My blood, my sweat, my heart, and my tears

Why don't you care, why don't you care?

I was there, I was there, when no one was

Now you're gone and I'm here

**[Chorus]**

I have questions for you (oh)

I have questions for you (oh)

I have questions for you (I have questions)

I have questions for you (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

**[Outro]**

I have questions for you (foul play, no, foul play, no)

I have questions for you

I have questions for you

[Whispers though Outro]

*How do I fix it? Can we talk? Can we communicate?*

Is it my fault? Is it my fault? Damn. *It's me*

I have questions
