Tell Me
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.
She said she loved me, all night long
I couldnt help but let her string my heart along
I knew better, I still do
But I'm not the first man who's ever played the fool
So tell me, why do I keep holding on?
Oh, why do I keep staring down the barrel of a loaded gun?
Then tell me why cant I just can't let go?
Somebody knows, then tell me
I wont point the finger, but I'll take the blame
Cause I saw her coming from a million miles away
I should have fought the feeling, but I gave in
Cause those lying blue eyes kept on pulling me back in
So tell me, why do I keep holding on?
Oh, why do I keep staring down the barrel of a loaded gun?
Then tell me why cant I just can't let go?
Somebody knows, then tell me
So tell me, why do I keep holding on?
Oh, why do I keep staring down the barrel of a loaded gun?
Then tell me why cant I just can't let go?
Somebody knows, somebody knows
Then tell me
Oh, why cant you just tell me?
If you know
