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.
