[Verse 1] Why can’t you tell me, baby Why’s it so hard to say It feels like getting blood from a stone When you look away Just three small words Could steady my wounded heart Could keep us from slipping Further apart [Pre-Chorus] If you mean it Then say it plain Don’t leave me guessing It’s not a game One simple answer One honest touch Could change my heart It means so much [Chorus] Tell me that you love me Tell me that you love me Tell me that you love me Or I’ll walk away Tell me that you love me Say it to my face Tell me that you love me Please don’t make me wait [Verse 2] I’ve been here waiting With my guard half-down Reading your silence Like a warning sound Could not be misunderstood If it came from you One spoken truth Would pull me through [Pre-Chorus] If you mean it Then say it plain Don’t leave me guessing It’s not a game One simple answer One honest touch Could change the room It means so much [Chorus] Tell me that you love me Tell me that you love me Tell me that you love me Or I’ll walk away Tell me that you love me Say it to my face Tell me that you love me Tell me that you love me [Bridge] I’m not asking for forever I’m not asking for the moon Just your lips to give me truth now Before I lose my cool One small breath One bright flame Say my name I feel the same [Final Chorus] Tell me that you love me Tell me that you love me Tell me that you love me Or I’ll walk away Tell me that you love me Say it to my face Tell me that you love me Don’t make me wait Please tell me that you love me
