[c#] How to get content body from a httpclient call?

I've been trying to figure out how to read the contents of a httpclient call, and I can't seem to get it. The response status I get is 200, but I can't figure out how to get to the actual Json being returned, which is all I need!

The following is my code:

async Task<string> GetResponseString(string text)
{
    var httpClient = new HttpClient();

    var parameters = new Dictionary<string, string>();
    parameters["text"] = text;
    Task<HttpResponseMessage> response = 
        httpClient.PostAsync(BaseUri, new FormUrlEncodedContent(parameters));

    return await response.Result.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
}

And I am getting it just calling it from a method:

Task<string> result =  GetResponseString(text);

And This is what I get

response Id = 89, Status = RanToCompletion, Method = "{null}", Result = "StatusCode: 200, ReasonPhrase: 'OK', Version: 1.1, Content: System.Net.Http.StreamContent, Headers:\r\n{\r\n Connection: keep-alive\r\n Date: Mon, 27 Oct 2014 21:56:43 GMT\r\n ETag: \"5a266b16b9dccea99d3e76bf8c1253e0\"\r\n Server: nginx/0.7.65\r\n Content-Length: 125\r\n Content-Type: application/json\r\n}" System.Threading.Tasks.Task<System.Net.Http.HttpResponseMessage>

Update: This is my current code per Nathan's response below

    async Task<string> GetResponseString(string text)
    {
        var httpClient = new HttpClient();

        var parameters = new Dictionary<string, string>();
        parameters["text"] = text;

        var response = await httpClient.PostAsync(BaseUri, new FormUrlEncodedContent(parameters));
        var contents = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();

        return contents;
    }

And I call it from this method....

 string AnalyzeSingle(string text)
    {
        try
        {
            Task<string> result = GetResponseString(text);
            var model = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<SentimentJsonModel>(result.Result);

            if (Convert.ToInt16(model.pos) == 1)
            {
                _numRetries = 0;
                return "positive";
            }

            if (Convert.ToInt16(model.neg) == 1)
            {
                _numRetries = 0;
                return "negative";
            }

            if (Convert.ToInt16(model.mid) == 1)
            {
                _numRetries = 0;
                return "neutral";
            }

            return "";
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            if (_numRetries > 3)
            {
                LogThis(string.Format("Exception caught [{0}] .... skipping", e.Message));
                _numRetries = 0;
                return "";
            }
            _numRetries++;
            return AnalyzeSingle(text);
        }
    }

And it keeps running forever, It hits the line var model = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<SentimentJsonModel>(result.Result); Once, and it continues to go without stopping at another breakpoint.

When I pause execution, It say

Id = Cannot evaluate expression because the code of the current method is optimized., Status = Cannot evaluate expression because the code of the current method is optimized., Method = Cannot evaluate expression because the code of the current method is optimized., Result = Cannot evaluate expression because the code of the current method is optimized.

.. I Continue execution, but it just runs forever. Not sure what the problem is

If you are not wanting to use async you can add .Result to force the code to execute synchronously:

private string GetResponseString(string text)
{
    var httpClient = new HttpClient();

    var parameters = new Dictionary<string, string>();
    parameters["text"] = text;

    var response = httpClient.PostAsync(BaseUri, new FormUrlEncodedContent(parameters)).Result;
    var contents = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;

    return contents;
 }
