I Want To Hear It From You

I want to hear it from you
I want to hear it from one who should know how it is
All the second-hand words seem to get in my way
I want to hear it from you

I want to hear it again
I want to know if the soft scented touch of your lips
Must be taken away like a mother's first kiss
To the life that she gives
I want to hear it from you
I've got to hear it from you

I've got a right to get it straight from you
To give my life a different point of view
To find a way, baby, to keep from losing you
Keep from losing you
I gotta keep from losing you
Baby, baby, I don't want to lose you

If you don't know what to say
Hey baby, to understand is my life and the question is why
You should cry in the night while your eyes look away
Every time that I speak and there's nothing to say
Hey baby, I've got to hear it from you

I've got to hear it from you
I want to hear it from you
Let me know how you feel
Well, you've got to make up your mind
Tell me where I can run
When the roof tumbles in?
I want to hear it from you

I want to hear it from you
I want to hear it from you
I want to hear it from you
I want to hear it from you
