Tell Me Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Tell me, baby, is it yes or no?
You've got a face that just don't show
What's going on inside?
Tell me
I swear, I'll take it on the chin
Don't sugarcoat where I fit in
What's going on?
[Chorus]
Inside you, theres a room, a room with a door
I finally come knocking and I've been here before
Oh, I've got this love for you, but what is it for?
If you can hear me, then tell me
[Verse 2]
Last chance
Hold me in your arms and say
If you want this love to walk away
Tell me, and I'll say goodbye
[Chorus]
Inside you, theres a room, a room with a door
I finally come knocking and I've been here before
Oh, I've got this love for you, but what is it for?
If you can hear me, then tell me
Tell me, baby, is it yes or no?
You've got a face that just don't show
What's going on inside?
Tell me
I swear, I'll take it on the chin
Don't sugarcoat where I fit in
What's going on?
[Chorus]
Inside you, theres a room, a room with a door
I finally come knocking and I've been here before
Oh, I've got this love for you, but what is it for?
If you can hear me, then tell me
[Verse 2]
Last chance
Hold me in your arms and say
If you want this love to walk away
Tell me, and I'll say goodbye
[Chorus]
Inside you, theres a room, a room with a door
I finally come knocking and I've been here before
Oh, I've got this love for you, but what is it for?
If you can hear me, then tell me
[Bridge]
I'll make it easy
I'm counting to three
Am I something you want or someone you need?
[Breakdown]
Tell me that you want me
Tell me that you love me, baby
Tell me that you want me
Tell me that you love me
Just tell me that you want me
Tell me that you love me
[Outro]
Tell me, darling won't you tell me
I'm begging you to tell me
Tell me and I'll say goodbye
I'll make it easy
I'm counting to three
Am I something you want or someone you need?
[Breakdown]
Tell me that you want me
Tell me that you love me, baby
Tell me that you want me
Tell me that you love me
Just tell me that you want me
Tell me that you love me
[Outro]
Tell me, darling won't you tell me
I'm begging you to tell me
Tell me and I'll say goodbye
