Speak Up Songtext
von Kristinia DeBarge

Speak up, your silence is killin′ me
I've had enough
Baby, speak up, are you lovin′ or hatin' me?
'Cause I can never tell

I′ll be the first to admit it
Been silent for a minute
Thinkin′ like, "Damn, is he feelin' me?"
We fell in love, took a second
But now I′m always checkin'
′Cause I never hear you say what you really think

Some days I feel it, then I feel it's over
Some days were hotter then some days were colder
When you open up, our love is alive
But now you′re quiet and I'm dyin' inside

So baby, speak up ′cause your silence is killin′ me
I've had enough
Baby, speak up, are you lovin′ or hatin' me?
′Cause I can never tell, I can never tell


Just let your heart say what you can't say (speak up)
Let your heart say what you won′t say (speak up)
Don't let the silence tear us away
'Cause I can never tell, I can never tell
If you don′t speak up

(Speak, speak, speak, speak, speak up)
(Speak, speak, speak, speak, speak up)

I don′t know where you've been
But nothing′s making sense
I'm standin′ on this fence for you
And even when you're here
Somehow you disappear
If I can read your mind, I′d know just what to do

Some days I feel it, then I feel it's over
Some days were hotter then some days were colder
When you open up, our love is alive
And now you're quiet and I′m dyin′ inside

So baby, speak up 'cause your silence is killin′ me
I've had enough
Baby, speak up, are you lovin′ or hatin' me?
′Cause I can never tell, I can never tell


Just let your heart say what you can't say (speak up)
Let your heart say what you won't say (speak up)
Don′t let the silence tear us away
′Cause I can never tell, I can never tell
If you don't speak up

I′ll be out the door before the sun comes up
Boy, catch me if you can while I'm pumping that clutch
(Try) try to be the one, (I) gave it all I got
(I′m) giving you your last chance (if you don't speak up)

Say all the words that you never said, oh
Write all the letters that I never read, oh
Show me your words or the love is dead
Just wanna hear it from you

First to admit it
Been silent for a minute
Thinkin′ like, "Damn, is he feelin' me?"
We fell in love, took a second
But you about to wreck it
'Cause I never hear you say what you really need

Baby, speak up ′cause your silence is killin′ me (your silence is killin' me)
I′ve had enough
Baby, speak up, are you lovin' or hatin′ me?
'Cause I can never tell, I can never tell

Just let your heart say what you can′t say (speak up)
Let your heart say what you won't say (speak up)
Don't let the silence tear us away
′Cause I can never tell, I can never tell
If you don′t speak up

(Speak, speak, speak, speak, speak up)
(Speak, speak, speak, speak, speak up)

If you don't speak up
Open up your mouth ′cause baby, I'm listenin′
