First thing you should know about me
I've always been a man of my word
Secondly please know that I take everythin'
For what it's worth
Now it's 3AM, 'n' the bars are all closed
'N' you come over alone
'Cause you were just thinkin' of me
Sayin' how since we've been together
The world has been so much better
Then you lean over 'n'tell me you love me
You've been patiently awaitin'
For me to say it, say it out loud
'N' I want to, 'cause I want you
But I need time, time to come around
'Cause when I tell you everythin' I'm feelin'
Every word is straight from my heart
If I speak it, best believe it
That I mean it, if I say it out loud
I've been there before I took it way too fast
Hardest lesson I ever learned
Know you can throw it out and take it back
It's such an easy way to get burned
Oh, I want the best for you
I got so much respect for you
I will never hurt you, my dear
I'm now tryin' to build this trust
'N' I don't wanna fill it up with the things
That you think you want to hear
You've been patiently awaitin'
For me to say it, say it out loud
'N' I want to, 'cause I want you
But I need time, time to come around
'Cause when I tell you everythin' I'm feelin'
Every word is straight from my heart
If I speak it, best believe it
That I mean it, if I say it out loud
Three little words, three little words
Three little words, so complicated
Three little words, three little words
Three little words, so complicated
You've been patiently awaitin' (awaitin')
For me to say it, say it out loud
'N' I want to (ooh), 'cause I want you
But I need time, time to come around (come around)
'Cause when I tell you everythin' I'm feelin'
Every word is straight from my heart (heart)
If I speak it, best believe it
That I need it, if I say it out loud (loud)
Now it's patiently awaitin'
For me to say it, if I say it out loud
