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
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
Are you near me all the way?
Oh, if you love me so
Don't let me be the last to know
Ooh, yeah
Ooh, yeah, baby
Your body language says so much
Yeah, I feel it in the way you touch
'Till you say the words, it's not enough
C'mon, and tell me you're in love, please
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
Are you near me all the way?
Oh, if you love me so
Don't let me be the last, last to know (yeah)
C'mon baby, c'mon darling
C'mon, let me be the one
C'mon now, ooh
(I need to hear you say) I need to hear you say
(You love me all the way) you love me all the way
(I don't wanna wait another day) and I don't wanna wait another day
I wanna feel the way you feel, oh, c'mon
(Don't) don't, (don't let me be the last to know) just let me be the one
(Don't) don't (hold back) hold back, (just let it go) just let it go
(I need to hear you say) I need to hear you say
(You need me all the way) you need me all the way
So baby, if you love me
(Don't, don't, don't) let me be the last to know
