i want to hear it from you
I want to hear it from you I want to hear it from someone who knows 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've got a right to get it straight from you To give my life a different point of view To find a way to keep from losing 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 I can run When my roof tumbles in I want to hear it from you I want to hear it from you
