Say It First

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I never feel like this

I'm used to emptiness in my heart

And in my arms

You're not what I'm used to

You keep me guessing with things that you do

I hope that they're true

'Cause I'm never gonna heal my past

If I run every time it starts

So I need to know

If I'm in this alone

Come on, baby

Say it first

I need to hear you

Say those words

If I'm all that you desire

I promise there'll be fire

I need to hear you

Say it first

Come on, baby, do your worst

I know you'll take me higher

So come on, darling

If you love me, say it first

(Say it, say it, say it)

(Won't you say it to me?)

(Say it, say it, say it)

(Won’t you say it to me?)

I know you're right for me

But I'm waiting for everything in your world

To align with my world

I think of you while I sleep

I dream of what we could be if we grow

Together unfold

'Cause I'm never gonna heal my past

If I run every time it starts

So I need to know

If I'm in this alone

Come on, baby

Say it first

I need to hear you

Say those words

If I'm all that you desire

I promise there'll be fire

I need to hear you

Say it first

Come on, baby, do your worst

I know you'll take me higher

So come on, darling

If you love me, say it first

(Say it, say it, say it)

(Won't you say it to me?)

(Say it, say it, say it)

(Won't you say it to me?) Do your worst

(Say it, say it, say it)

(Won't you say it to me?)

(Say it, say it, say it)

(Won't you say it to me?) Come on, baby

Say it first

I need to hear you

Say those words

If I'm all that you desire

I promise there'll be fire

I need to hear you

Say it first

Come on, baby, do your worst

I know you'll take me higher

So come on, darling

If you love me, say it first

(Say it, say it, say it)

(Won't you say it to me?)

(Say it, say it, say it)

(Won't you say it to me?)

(Say it, say it, say it)

(Won't you say it to me?)

(Say it, say it, say it)

(Won't you say it to me?)
