Tell her not to go

I ain't holding on no more

Tell her something in my mind freezes up from time to time



Tell her not to cry

I just got scared that's all

Tell her I'll be by her side, all she has to do is call



Tell her the chips are down

I drank too much and shouted it aloud

Tell her something in my heart

Needs her more than even clowns need the laughter of the crowd.



Tell her what was wrong

I sometimes think too much

But say nothing at all

And tell her from this high terrain, I am ready now to fall.



Tell her not to go

I ain't holding on no more

Tell her nothing if not this; all I want to do is kiss her.



Tell her something in my mind

Freezes up from time to time.
