Oh Baby there are things that you should know
Before I give my heart, let’s take it slow
My heart’s been wounded once too many times before
And I don’t trust men afraid to open up once more

Before I give you my heart
Tell me it’s real
Say what you mean and show how you feel
Before I give you my love
Show me that you’re real
Break down these walls show the treasure revealed

So as the time goes by my faith grows strong
And I can’t live my life believing love’s all wrong
My heart’s been wounded but you took the time to mend
And nurse the doubts that had kept me on the fence

Before I give you my heart
Tell me it’s real
Say what you mean and show how you feel
Before I give you my love
Show me that you’re real
Break down these walls show the treasure revealed
