Tell Me - Al Jarreau

Tell me the reason why you say

You wanna look around

Tell me what takes you far away

Leavin' me on the ground

All of the things you do and say

Turnin' me upside down

I can’t go on and on this way

Stumblin' 'round and 'round

Do do do, so won’t you won’t you

Come on and say it

Don’t you know you gotta love me

You gotta want me

Tell me what I should say or do

How do I catch your eye

I made a goddess out of you

Ready to do or die

Gathered a thousand stars for you

Took 'em right out of the sky

Tell me you dream about me too

Tell me a tender lie

BRIDGE:

Well there’s a sparrow without a wing

And there’s a song with no one to sing

And there’s a fool on the hill who thinks

He’s doin' fine

You roam the world in your lonely flight

Singin' songs in the dead of night

And everything seems to be all right

But not inside

Woo ooh ooh ooh

So tell me that you won’t hesitate

Betcha we make a rhyme

We’ve got take the hand of fate

While we are in our prime

Come on and help me syncopate

Let your heart beat like mine

This is an easy step to take

Easy to dance in time

CHORUS / BRIDGE

Tell me the reason why you say

You wanna look around

Tell me what takes you far away

Leavin' me on the ground

Tell me what I should do or say

How do I catch your eye

Tell me that you won’t hesitate

Betcha we make a rhyme
