I know you and you know me

We've got a special kind of lovin' it seems

But sometimes I, I wonder why

You never tell me what you're feeling inside



'Cause even though we're young

What we've got is strong

Still I need to know

I need to hear you say it 'cause



Love is the greatest word

Don't hold it in

You've got to let it be heard

Baby, love is the greatest word

Don't let it go unspoken

Don't let this heart be broken



You can bring me wine and valentines

Take me away to a paradise

To a paradise

But that simple word

The sweetest I've heard

It means much more than anything in the world



So open up your heart

Tell me what's inside

When it comes to that emotion

It's too easy to hide



Baby, love is the greatest word

Don't hold it in

You've got to let it be heard

Baby, love is the greatest word

Don't let it go unspoken

Don't let this heart be broken



Even though

I read it in your eyes

I feel it in your kisses

I've still got to hear it



No need to shout

Whisper the word

Let it be heard

Baby, won't you tell me you love me

Let me know how you feel

Baby, love is the greatest word



'Cause even though we're young

What we've got is strong

Still I need to know

I need to hear you tell me you love me

Tell me that you love me



Baby, love is the greatest word

Love is the greatest word

Don't hold it in

You've got to let it be heard

The sweetest of them all

Baby, love is the greatest word

Don't let it go unspoken

Don't let this heart be broken



You've got to tell me what's inside

Tell me that this love's alive

Yeah, yeah



Love is the greatest word

So don't let it go unspoken

Don't let this heart be broken
