Yeah, baby, baby

[Verse 1]
I've been trying not to let my patience
Get the best of me when I feel weak
Always hoping for new conversation
But all I do is talk about you when I sleep
Having such a hard time getting over us
And the fact our love has flown away
The memory of your touch just ain't enough
To look forward and embrace another day

[Chorus]
I wanna hear you say
I need your heart, I need your mind
I just can't live my life without
Your breath, your kiss
Your smile, your lips to love about
To love about

[Verse 2]
It's been a long time since I held you near
Held your body gently close to me
The way you looked at me I miss the most
And now all I'm longing for is yesterday

[Chorus]
I wanna hear you say
I need your heart, I need your mind
I just can't live my life without
Your breath, your kiss
Your smile, your lips to love about
To love about

[Bridge]
I can't live
Longing for yesterday
Got to find a way

[Chorus]
I wanna hear you say
I need your heart, I need your mind
I just can't live my life without
Your breath, your kiss
Your smile, your lips to love about

I wanna hear you say
I need your heart, I need your mind
I just can't live my life without
Your breath, your kiss
Your smile, your lips to love about

I wanna hear you say
I need your heart, I need your mind
I just can't live my life without
Your breath, your kiss
Your smile, your lips to love about

Wanna hear you say
I need your heart, I need your mind
I just can't live my life without
Your breath, your kiss
Your smile, your lips to love about

I wanna hear you say
I need your heart, I need your mind
I just can't live my life without
Your breath, your kiss
Your smile, your lips to love about

I wanna hear you say
I need your heart, I need your mind
I just can't live my life without
Your breath, your kiss
Your smile, your lips to love about
To love about

[Outro]
I can't live
Longing for yesterday
Got to find a way
