Tell It Like It Is - Lindi Ortega

Before I say goodbye, before I tell you I should go

If you want me baby, gonna have to let me know

'Cause I can’t read your mind

You gotta play the part and invite me to the show

Rehearsing how it starts with poetry and prose

'Cause I can’t read between the lines

Tell me what it means

Seal it with a kiss

And tell it like it is

Tell it like it is

Honey, I insist

You gotta tell it like it is

If ya keep it to yourself, I’m sure I’ll never see

I won’t know how you felt if you alter destiny

And I will become blind

Blind to all the love and all it might have been

Don’t hide it in your heart where it’s dark and locked in

Oh, why not shed some light?

Tell me what it means

Seal it with a kiss

And tell it like it is

(Tell it like it is)

Tell it like it is

(Tell it like it is)

Honey, I insist

(Oooh)

You gotta tell it like it is

Baby’s gotta, baby’s gotta, baby’s gotta take it from me

You gotta break the chain in the game

Let your love fly free

Let your love fly free

And tell it like it is

(Tell it like it is)

Tell it like it is

(Tell it like it is)

Honey, I insist

(Oooh)

Tell it like is

Tell it

Tell it

Tell it like it is

Tell it

Ooh, tell it

Tell it like it is
