Tell It Like It Is

Before I say 'goodbye', before I tell you I should go

If you want me baby, gonna have to let me know

'Cause I can't read your mind

You gotta play the part, invite me to the show

Rehearsing how it starts with poetry and prose

'Cause I can't read between the lines

Tell me what I've missed

Seal it with the kiss

And tell it like it is, tell it like it is

Honey I insist

You gotta tell it like it is

If you keep it to yourself, I'm sure I'll never see

I won't know how you felt if you alter destiny

And I will become blind

Blind to all the love and all that might have been

Don't hide it in your heart where it's dark and locked in

Oh I might shed some light

Tell me what I've missed

Seal it with the kiss

And tell it like it is, tell it like it is

Honey I insist

You gotta tell it like it is

Baby's gotta, Baby's gotta, Baby's gotta

Take it from me

You gotta break the chain, and again

Let your love fly free, yeah

Let your love fly free

And tell it like it is

Tell like it is

Honey I insist

Tell it like it is

Tell it, tell it, tell it like it is

Tell it, Oh, tell it, tell it like it is
