Out Loud

First thing you should know about me
I've always been a man of my word
Secondly please know that I take everything
For what it's worth.

I was dreaming I'm in the bars
That were closed, and you come over
Alone, 'cause you were just thinking of me
Saying how since we've been together
The world has been so much better
Then you leave the bar and tell me you love me.

You've been patiently awaiting
For me to say it, say it out loud
And I want to, 'cause I want you
But I need time, time to come around.

'Cause when I'll tell you everything I'm feeling
Every word is straight from my heart
If I speak it, let's 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 trying to build this trust
And I don't wanna fill it up
With the things that you think you want to hear.

You've been patiently awaiting
For me to say it, say it out loud
And I want to, 'cause I want you
But I need time, time to come around.

'Cause when I'll tell you everything I'm feeling
Every word is straight from my heart
If I speak it, let's 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 awaiting (awaiting)
For me to say it, say it out loud
And I want to (ooh), 'cause I want you
But I need time, time to come around (come around)

'Cause when I'll tell you everything I'm feeling (ooh)
Every word is straight from my heart (heart)
If I'm speaking, it's believing
That I need it, if I say it out loud (loud)

Now it's patiently awaiting
For me to say it, if I say it out loud.
