I Wanna Hear It From My Heart - El DeBarge

Lying here close beside you

Thinking of times before

Love was a game and love me more

Now I need to feel the rhythm

Coming from deep inside

I wanna know his right and I…

I wanna hear it from my heart

Wanna be sure before I start

And maybe his love is real

And I… I wanna know before I fall

To give all I got

Don’t give nothing at all

I wanna hear it from my heart, oh

Maybe I’m just too cautious

But maybe I need some time

Time to convince this heart of mine, oh… oh… oh…

That I can really trust you

(Really trust you)

'Cause I’ve learned that words can lie

I hear it from your lips but I…

I wanna hear it from my heart

(Hear it from my heart)

Wanna be sure before I start

And maybe his love is real

And I, I, I wanna know before I fall

To give all I got

Don’t give nothing at all

I wanna hear it from my heart, oh

Mmm… mmm… mmm…

Oh, no

I hear it from your lips but I…

I wanna hear it from my heart

(Hear it from my heart)

Wanna be sure before I start

And maybe his love is real

And I, I, I wanna know before I fall

To give all I got

Don’t give nothing at all

(Nothing at all)

Before I fall in love, oh

I wanna hear it from my heart

Wanna know where we stand right from the start

Wanna know that his love is real love

I wanna hear it from my heart

(Hear it from my heart)

To give all I got

Don’t give nothing at all

(Nothing at all)

I wanna hear it from my heart

(I wanna hear it from my heart)

(Wanna be sure before I start)

Oh… oh… oh… oh… oh… oh… baby

I wanna hear it from my heart
