[Chorus]
Don't, don't let me be the last to know
Don't hold back, just let it go
I need to hear you say
You need me all the way
Oh, if you love me so
Don't let me be the last to know
Last, last (The last to know)
Last, last (The last to know)
Last, last (The last to know)
Last, last (The last to know)
Last, last (The last to know)
Last, last (The last to know)
Last, last (The last to know)
Last, last (The last to know)
Last, last (The last to know)
Last, last (The last to know)
Last, last (The last to know)
Last, last (The last to know)

[Post-Chorus]
Go...
Hold back...
Come on, come on...

[Verse 1]
My friends say you're so into me
And that you need me desperately
They say you say we're so complete
But I need to hear it straight from you
If you want me to believe it's true
I've been waiting for so long it hurts
I want to hear you say the words, please

[Chorus]
Don't, don't let me be the last to know
Don't hold back, just let it go
I need to hear you say
You need me all the way
Oh, if you love me so
Don't let me be the last to know
Ooh, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]
Your body language says so much
Yeah, I feel it in the way you touch
But 'til you say the words it's not enough
Come on and tell me you're in love, please

[Chorus]
Don't, don't let me be the last to know
Don't hold back, just let it go
I need to hear you say
You need me all the way
Oh, if you love me so
Don't let me be the last to know

[Bridge]
Come on, baby, come on darling, ooh yeah
Come on, let me be the one
Come on now, oh yeah
I need to hear you say
You love me all the way
And I don't want to wait another day
I want to feel the way you feel
Oh, come on
Ooh, yeah, yeah
Ooh, yeah, yeah

[Outro]
Don't, just let me be the one
Don't hold back, just let it go
I need to hear you say
You need me all the way
So baby, if you love me, let me be the last to know

Britney Jean Spears (born December 2, 1981) is an American singer and actress. Born in McComb, Mississippi, and raised in Kentwood, Louisiana, she performed acting roles in stage productions and television shows as a child before signing with Jive Records in 1997.

Spears’s first and second studio albums, …Baby One More Time and Oops!… I Did It Again, became international successes, with the former becoming the best-selling album by a teenage solo artist. Title tracks “…Baby One More Time” and “Oops!… I Did It Again” broke international sales records, with the former reaching number one in every country it charted in. In 2001, Spears released her self-titled third studio album, Britney, and played the starring role in the film Crossroads (2002). She assumed creative control of her fourth studio album, In the Zone, which yielded the worldwide success of the single “Toxic.”

In 2007, Spears’s much-publicized personal issues sent her career into hiatus. Her fifth studio album, Blackout, was released later that year, and spawned hits such as “Gimme More” and “Piece of Me”.
