Say What's In My Heart

I interrupt TV viewing for the meantime to bring you this song....

I finally found it! I've been looking for this for sooooo long now. Ten years ago, I first heard this being performed on Jay Leno's The Tonight Show and I instantly fell in love with its lyrics and melody.

Today, the story behind the song is ten times more meaningful to me than when I first heard it. Because this time, I know exactly what it is about.




Say What's In My Heart
Aaron Neville/Babyface/Dianne Warren

My eyes can't lie to you
My kiss my kiss can only tell you true now
You say you have your doubts
But I say I don't know what that talks about now

My world, I have given you
I never gave myself the way I gave myself to you
What have I gotta do to make you believe I love you
What have I gotta say to make you believe you're the one for me

Didn't you hold me last night
Didn't you look in my eyes
Didn't I, didn't I say what's in my heart
Didn't my heart tell you true, that I could only love you
Didn't I, didn't I say what's in my heart
When I say I love you, I say what's in my heart

There is no other love
I know that God knows you're the only one so
Why can't you believe when I tell you there ain't nobody
There ain't nobody but you in my heart

Long as we've been together
You should know by now the love I feel, I feel forever
What have I gotta do to make you believe I love you
What have I gotta say to make you believe you're the one for me.

Didn't you hold me last night
Didn't you look in my eyes
Didn't I, Didn't I say what's in my heart
Didn't my heart tell you true, that I could only love you
Didn't I, Didn't I say what's in my heart
When I say I love you I say what's in my heart

I'll never walk away, I'll never leave your side,
I'll never break your heart looking in someone else's eyes
You're everythingI need, the air that I breathe
I won't live one day without you, believe me

Didn't you hold me last night,
Didn't you look in my eyes,
Didn't I, Didn't I say what's in my heart,
Didn't my heart tell you true, that I could only love you
Didn't I, didn't I say what's in my heart
When I say I love you I say what's in my heart

Didn't you hold me last night
Didn't you look in my eyes
Didn't I, didn't I say what's in my heart
Didn't my heart tell you true
That I could only love you
Didn't I, didn't I say what's in my heart
When I say I love you I say what's in my heart
Didn't you hold me last night
Didn't you look in my eyes
Didn't I, didn't I say what's in my heart
Didn't my heart tell you true that
I could only love you
Didn't I, didn't I say what's in my heart
Didn't you hold me last night
Didn't you look in my eyes
Didn't I, didn't I say what's in my heart
