Lyrics I Like to Hear It Sometime - Ray Charles, Betty Carter

I Like to Hear It Sometime

I don’t want you to be no fool
And don’t treat me no special way — Just say
«I love you so" — now and then …
'Cause if you really, really love me, yeah,
I like to hear it some time
Sometimes you ought to take me in your arms
And say the words that I want to hear
You ought to sooth me with your magic charms
Call me «sweetheart», «darling"or «dear»!
I don’t want you to beg or cry
A little affection would satisfy
I don’t want you to be upset
I just want to hear you say
«I love you so" — now and then …
'Cause if you really, really love me, yeah,
I like to hear it some time
