There's no need to hide anything Baby just know what you bring Will always be enough All of those things that you do Are the reasons that I fell for you And why, I believe in us [Chorus] Baby shoot straight from your heart You'll never miss your mark Baby always shoot straight from your heart Let truth be the path that you choose There ain't no way we can lose Baby always shoot straight from your heart We're gonna make some mistakes 'Cause baby I sure ain't no saint I swear I'm in for the long haul It doesn't matter how far I love you just how you are I will answer when you call [Chorus]
