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 a right
To get it straight from you,
To give my life
A diff'rent point of view,
To find a way
To keep from losin' you.
If you don't know what to say,
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.
I want to hear it from you.
I want to hear it from you.
Let me know how you feel.
You've got to make up your mind.
Tell me where can I run
When the roof tumbles in.
I want to hear it from you.
I want to hear it from you.
