[Intro]
Mmm, yeah

[Verse 1]
My friends say you're so into me
And that you need me desperately
They say you say we're so complete
But I need to hear it straight from you
If you want me to believe it's true
I've been waiting for so long, it hurts
I wanna hear you say the words, please

[Chorus]
Don't, don't let me be the last to know
Don't hold back, just let it go
I need to hear you say
You need me all the way
Oh, if you love me so
Don't let me be the last to know

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, yeah
Ooh, yeah, baby

[Verse 2]
Your body language says so much
Yeah, I feel it in the way you touch
But 'til you say the words, it's not enough
C'mon and tell me you're in love, please
