Tell me what I can say
To make you want to stay
Tell me how to act
So you’ll want to come back
Tell me something I don’t already know
Show me the affection, lately you haven’t shown
Tell me a lie to help me make it through
Tell me “I love you”
Then give me a kiss so I won’t cry
But whatever you do don’t say “Good-bye”
