Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where do we start, and where do we end?
Your fingertips, just joining with grace
Show me the truth, tell me to my face
Uh
Say you love me
Say you need me
Like you mean it, uh
Say you love me
That you won't leave me
'Cause I don't believe it
I don't believe it
Kill my superstition please, I'm begging
Let the words roll of your tongue, I'm waiting
Say you love me
Say you need me
Like you mean it
Like you mean it (oh)
Yeah, I don't know what I'm doing this for
'Cause we're not the type to be insecure
I just never knew it could be this good
I'm acting crazy, not like I should
And I need to hear it, hear it, hear it
I need to hear it, hear it, hear it
Uh
Say you love me
Say you need me
Like you mean it
Like you mean it (oh)
Say you love me
That you won't leave me
'Cause I don't believe it
I don't believe it
(Like you mean it)
(Like you mean it)

Kill my superstition please, I'm begging
Let the words roll of your tongue, I'm waiting
Say you love me
Say you need me
Like you mean it
Like you mean it, oh
And I need to hear it, hear it, hear it
I need to hear it, hear it, hear it, uh
I need to hear it, hear it, hear it (I need to hear it)
Like you mean it (I need to hear it)
Like you mean it
Say you love me
Say you need me
Like you mean it
Like you mean it
Say you love me
That you won't leave me
'Cause I don't believe it

Kill my superstition please, I'm begging
Let the words roll of your tongue, I'm waiting
