Speak Your Heart
Lizz Wright Lyrics

I know what you wanna say, I see the words behind your eyes
I can sense the emotions within you and understand the desires you want to express, even if you haven't spoken them aloud.

By the time you show me what you're hiding it won't be no surprise
Although you may be hesitant to reveal your true feelings, I already have an idea of what you want to say and won't be caught off guard if you do share them with me.

Why do you keep on whispering
I notice that you're speaking softly and not fully expressing yourself, perhaps out of fear or uncertainty.

Talking with your face turned away
You're not making eye contact with me when you speak, which indicates that you might be hiding something or feeling insecure about your feelings.

You say that love don't come easy for you
You've expressed that you struggle with love and opening up to others due to past experiences or personal beliefs.

What makes you think I ain't afraid
I don't want you to assume that I don't also experience fears and doubts in relationships; I am willing to face these challenges with you.

Let me in, or let me go
I need you to make a decision whether you want to fully open up to me and be vulnerable, or if you'd rather let go of this relationship entirely.

It's time you tell me where you're standing baby
I'm asking you to be honest with me about your feelings and intentions, so that we can both be on the same page and move forward in this relationship.

I won't go down if you say no
Even if you don't feel the same way as I do, I won't let it bring me down or negatively affect our friendship/relationship.

Just open up your mouth and say it baby
I'm encouraging you to take the risk of expressing your true feelings and speaking from your heart, so that we can have an authentic connection with each other.

You used to say, the world goes away when you're with me
In the past, you've expressed that being with me makes you feel completely present in the moment and forget about any outside stressors or worries.

I don't want to be your reoccurring dream
However, I don't want to just be a temporary escape from reality; I want to have a genuine, lasting relationship with you.

Let me out, let me stay after the sun rises
I want to have a real connection with you both in moments of intimacy and in everyday life, and not just when things are easy or convenient.

I want to be real to you, no more disguises
I am willing to be completely open and honest with you, even if it means showing you my flaws and insecurities.

Speak your heart
I urge you to express your genuine emotions and speak from your heart, rather than hiding behind a facade.

Speak your heart
I want to emphasize again how important it is that you express your true feelings and thoughts to me.

Speak your heart
I'm asking you to be brave and take the risk of being vulnerable with me, so that we can create a deeper, more meaningful connection with each other.

Speak your heart
I promise to listen and validate whatever you choose to share with me, and to continue loving and accepting you for who you are.
