If I could write you a song
|
With all the right words,
|
When would these black clouds begin to burn up
|
The moment you heard?
|
|
If I could make you a map,
|
Would you find your way home?
|
You know you can't keep me alive
|
Leave me alone.
|
|
Tell me I'm yours.
|
Tell me you're mine.
|
Tell me I'm anything but fine.
|
Tell me a story.
|
Tell me the time.
|
Tell me a lie.
|
|
If I could make you a tape
|
With all the right noise,
|
Would you smile when you listen and sigh
|
Boys will be boys?
|
|
If I could paint you a picture,
|
I'd turn black into white.
|
By now I'm not lookin' for love,
|
Just lookin' for tonight.
|
|
So tell me I'm yours.
|
Tell me you're mine.
|
Tell me I'm anything but fine.
|
Tell me a story.
|
Tell me the time.
|
Tell me a lie.
|
|
And tell me I'm yours.
|
Tell me you're mine.
|
Tell me I'm anything but fine.
|
Tell me a story.
|
Tell me the time.
|
Tell me a lie.
|
|
Tell me what I want to hear
|
Tomorrow I will disappear,
|
You won't ever have to see me again.
|
|
And tell me I'm yours.
|
Tell me you're mine.
|
Tell me I'm anything but fine.
|
Tell me a story.
|
Tell me the time.
|
Tell me a lie.
|
|
You said that words can only get you so far,
|
But I've got sentences that cover up all my scars.
|
In the end I might forget where they are,
|
Talk to me tonight.
|
|
And if we started all over today,
|
I think we know that we'd end up in the same place.
|
Maybe you're right and we've got nothing to say,
|
I want to hear it anyway.
|
I want to hear it anyway.
