Tell Her
Tell her we fight until the neighbors knock
And I am predisposed to wander off in thought
Tell her I fall asleep when we watch TV
And it drives you crazy having to rewind the scenes
But you do for me
Tell her my temper has a strong grip
I'm stubborn as a blood stain and we both know it
Tell her we laugh a lot and I've seen you cry
And it isn't lost on me she's the reason why
Tell her all about it
Tell her I don't want to take her place
While you're at it, tell yourself the same thing
I know she's still your friend and that won't end
But I just need to hear I'm the one again
So if you don't want to see me leave, could you please
Tell me it's complicated being loved
Don't tell me I'm not trying hard enough
It feels like jealousy but underneath
There's a scared little girl who's a lot like me
So if you don't want to see me leave
Tell her I don't want to take her place
While you're at it, tell yourself the same thing
I know she's still your friend and that won't end
But I just need to hear I'm the one again
So if you don't want to see me leave, could you please
Tell me
Tell me
Tell me that you understand
Why I'm crying again
Tell me that we'll figure it out
Tell me that you'll tell the truth
I will do the same to you
I know we'll figure it out
Tell me that you understand
Why I'm crying again
Tell me that we'll figure it out
Tell me that you'll tell the truth
I will do the same to you
I know we'll figure it out
Tell me
Tell me
Tell me
Tell me
Tell me
