"Give U My Heart" is a song recorded by American R&B singers Babyface and Toni Braxton for the soundtrack to the 1992 film Boomerang, starring Eddie Murphy. The collaboration was released as a single the same year, reaching No. 29 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and No. 2 on the Billboard Hot R&B Singles chart (behind another song from the Boomerang soundtrack, Boyz II Men's "End of the Road").
The song can be found on two of Braxton's greatest-hits albums, 2003's Ultimate Toni Braxton and 2007's The Essential Toni Braxton, and as a B-side on some editions of her 1993 single "Another Sad Love Song".
The "Upscale R&B Remix" version is played during the end credits of Boomerang.
Critical reception Dennis Hunt from Los Angeles Times described the song as a "sultry" duet.
