Say It Like You Mean It — Velez

Verse

Gold light on the counter, two cups, one spoon

Sugar on your fingertip, I follow the tune

You laugh at your own joke like it's still fresh news

Got me tapping on the table in these borrowed shoes

Talking real slow now, taking up my time

Every word you drop feels like it's dressed to rhyme

Pre-Chorus

So don't just talk to hear yourself

Don't give me halfway, give me all or nothing else

If you feel it, let it show

Cause I need to know

Chorus

Say it like you mean it, look me in the eye

Say it like you mean it, don't be shy tonight

I don't want it easy, I want it real

Say it like you mean it, and I'll show you how I feel

Verse

Streetlight through the window, three a.m. glow

You're tracing on my palm like you got somewhere to go

But your hand keeps staying, your voice keeps low

Every "maybe" that you drop, I already know

You're circling the diamond, dancing round the truth

Baby I'm still standing here, waiting on the proof

Pre-Chorus

So don't just talk to hear yourself

Don't give me halfway, give me all or nothing else

If you feel it, let it show

Cause I need to know

Chorus

Say it like you mean it, look me in the eye

Say it like you mean it, don't be shy tonight

I don't want it easy, I want it real

Say it like you mean it, and I'll show you how I feel

Bridge

No more circles, no more guessing games

No more soft goodbyes that swallow up your name

Put your hand right here, feel how it beats

Match it if you're serious, follow me

Chorus

Say it like you mean it, look me in the eye

Say it like you mean it, don't be shy tonight

I don't want it easy, I want it real

Say it like you mean it, and I'll show you how I feel

Say it like you mean it
