Tell me what, tell me what
Tell me what I 've got to do
To make you notice, to make you look this way
What do I have to say
Tell me what, tell me what I have to say
To keep you with me, to make you want to stay
To have you every day
Tell me what, tell me what I gotta do
Are you happy, I can never tell
You keep it to yourself
Tell me what, tell me what it is you feel
Do you get frightened
Am I comin' on, just a little too strong
And you're so quiet, I never know or not
If I'm right or wrong
Tell me what, tell me what
Tell me what I gotta do
Is there something I ought to be told
Do you want to go
Tell me what, tell me what it is you know
So it's over, then we're really through?
What I heard is true
Tell me what, tell me what your gonna do
To keep you with me, to make you want to stay
Too have you every day
Tell me what, tell me what I've gotta do
