My heart
Jennifer Hudson(제니퍼 허드슨) Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Whoa, whoa,
One, two, three, four

Whats up girl? let me holler at you for a second.
I just want you to know all of those other girls they never meant anything to me,
Your the only one for me

You turned me on, sounds so good talking fast.

But before we go on there's something I must ask,
Not about your past cause I don't care who came before me,
No my maturity is bigger than that.
I am more curious bout what you truly want,
Do I since sincerity or just good talk,
I don't care about the room or mill
But be understanding how you truly feel for me,
And yea I want you sexually

[Chorus]
But I ain't talking bout that,ain't talking bout them,
(Ain't talking bout her) ain't talking bout him
(I'm talking bout trust) I'm talking bout truth
(I'm talking bout me) and what I'm giving you
(This is my heart) please take care
(This is my heart)always be there
(This is my heart) something you cant take
So whatever you do please don't break my heart

Some girls are satisfied with clashing heads
And some girls are happy just to have a man
But my heart has my word to never put her in the way of harm
So you know I like your charm

[Chorus]

One night ain't gone get you no where,
There's so much to learn and what you dedicate to me is what you'll get back in return,
Now my bedroom game is sick, and that's only the half of it,
(I need love), I'm tired of the same, (give love) and no games

[Chorus]

I'm talking about the truth, and what I'm giving you
This is my heart

Overall Meaning

The song "My Heart" by Jennifer Hudson is a confession of love and trust. The song talks about the singer wanting to get serious with someone she really cares for, and how she values honesty, trust, and sincerity in a relationship. She talks about how she doesn't care about the past of her lover or who they have been with before, instead, she is curious about what they truly want from the relationship. She values her lover's feelings and appreciates their charm, but most importantly, she values her heart and wants her lover to take good care of it, not to break it.

The song warns the lover that sex and physical attraction are not the only things that matter in a relationship, and that true love is about trust and honesty. The singer believes that the love that is given is the love that's in return, therefore, she is willing to give her all in the relationship but expects the same in return. The song is a beautiful and emotional depiction of the complexity of love and relationships, and how much it means to people when they give their hearts away.
