Whoa, please tell me, tell me what I want to hear.
Whoa, please tell me, tell me that you go, tell me that you go out.
I met you just about three months ago.
You were a girl I just had to say I know.
I got your number, I got your name.
I got my phone, I'm going to call you today
I'm wishing, hoping, begging that you'll say.
I just got word you're with a different guy,
It makes me wonder is it worth a try.
I got your number; I got your name,
I got my phone, I'm going to call you today.
I'm wishing, hoping, begging that you'll say.
So whoa, please tell me, tell me what I want to hear.
Whoa, please tell me, tell me that you go, tell me that you go out.
You said you'd hang out for two nights shows.
I take you out so you are something more.
I got your number; I got your name,
I got my phone, I'm going to call you today.
I'm wishing, hoping, begging that you'll say.
So whoa, please tell me, tell me what I want to hear.
Whoa, please tell me, tell me that you go, tell me that you go out.
Every time I hear strangers when we met,
It only reminds me of you.
And I can't tell if you're just making as I leave
Well I just don't know.
Well I just don't know.
So whoa, please tell me, tell me what I want to hear
Whoa, please tell me, tell me that you go, tell me what I want to hear.
So whoa, please tell me, tell me what I want to hear
Whoa, please tell me, tell me that you go, tell me that you go out
