Lyrics


On the phone for hours at a time,

Expressing spending extended time on the phone

Has your voice changed or is it a trick of the line?

Questioning if the change in the voice is real or a result of the phone connection

All alone, I'm losing my mind,

Feeling lonely and distressed

Wonderin' what you'll be doin' tonight,

Curious about the partner's activities for the night


I still feel you hodin' me as clear as the day we said goodbye,

Recalling a strong sensation of being held, reminiscent of the goodbye

Words can change so easily when they cross a million miles,

Noting the susceptibility of words to change over distance


Hand on your heart, heart on your sleeve,

Referencing the symbolic gesture of placing a hand on the heart and wearing emotions openly

Are you tellin' me,

Prompting the partner to confirm something

When we're apart you still believe,

Asking if the belief in their connection persists even when apart

We are meant to be?

Questioning the destiny of their relationship

Even if you say the words you know I long to hear,

Expressing a desire to hear certain words

I wanna be sure so tell me once more,

Seeking reassurance by asking for repetition

Hand on your heart


Losin' sleep, can't take anymore,

Experiencing sleep deprivation due to uncertainty

Tired of wonderin' if you really miss me at all,

Tired of wondering if the partner genuinely misses them

I just need to be reassured,

Expressing the need for reassurance

If you love me what you waitin' for?

Questioning why the partner hasn't expressed love if they feel it


I still feel you holdin' me as clear as the day we said goodbye,

Reiterating the vivid memory of being held during the farewell

Memories fade so easily, but am I still in yours like you're in mine?

Highlighting the fading nature of memories and questioning their place in the partner's thoughts

You know that's all I need, baby tell me honestly....

Stressing the importance of honest communication


Hand on your heart, heart on your sleeve,

Repeating the symbolic gestures of hand on the heart and wearing emotions openly

Are you tellin' me,

Prompting the partner for a response

When we're apart you still believe,

Asking if the belief in their connection remains during separation

We are meant to be?

Reiterating the question about the destiny of their relationship

Even if you say the words you know I long to hear,

Expressing a desire to hear specific words

I wanna be sure so tell me once more,

Reiterating the need for reassurance through repetition

Hand on your heart


I still feel you holdin' me, tellin'me love will always be....

Continuing to feel the partner's presence and assurance of eternal love

Don't know if I can wait,

Expressing impatience and uncertainty about waiting

Until I see your face,

Anticipating the need to see the partner's face for reassurance

I need you to tell me,

Requesting the partner to communicate openly


Hand on your heart, heart on your sleeve,

Repeating the symbolic gestures of hand on the heart and wearing emotions openly

Are you tellin' me,

Prompting the partner for a response

When we're apart you still believe,

Asking if the belief in their connection persists during separation

We are meant to be?

Reiterating the question about the destiny of their relationship

Even if you say the words you know I long to hear,

Expressing a desire to hear specific words

I wanna be sure so tell me once more,

Reiterating the need for reassurance through repetition

Hand on your heart
