Tell Him
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Let me be patient
Let me be kind
Make me unselfish
Without being blind
Though i may suffer i'll envy it not
and endure what comes
Cause he's all that i got and tell him
Tell him i need him
Tell him i love him and it'll be alright
Now i may have faith to make mountains fall
But if i lack love then i have nothing at all
I can give away everything i possess
but am without i love then i have no happiness
I know i'm imperfect and not without sin
but now that i'm older all childish things end.
Tell him i need him
Tell him i love him and it'll be alright
I'll never be jealous and i won't be too proud
Cause love is not boastful
Oh and love is not loud
Tell him need him
Tell him i love him
Everything is gonna be alright
Alright... now...
Now i may have wisdom and knowledge on earth
But if i speak wrong then what is it worth
See what we now know is nothing compared
to the love that was shown when our lives were spared So...
So tell him
Tell him I need him
Tell him i love him
And it's gonna be ...
It's gonna be alright ...
All right...
Tell him I
Tell him I need him...
Love him, that nothing compared to life that
Was shown when our lives were spared...
Tell him it's gonna will be all right...
