Tell her a story
Tell her the honest truth
You treat her better
Make sure to see it through

Don't be just everything she wants
Be everything she needs
When she says she loves you
Tell her you love her too

Give her a reason
A reason to love all you do
She'll tell you secrets
You'll tell her secrets too

She'll tell you all her hopes and dreams
You'll tell them too
When she says she loves you
Tell her you love her too
Tell her you love her too

But don't you run away, run away
When you get tired
'Cause this will slip away, slip away
And start a fire
That can never be put out
Oh, hurry, time is running out
But don't you run away, run away
Before you tell her you love her

When she says she needs you
Tell her you need her too
You tell her clearly
Speak what your heart wants you to

Tell her she's lovely
Always tell her the truth
When she says she loves you
Tell her you love her too

But please don't you run away, run away
When you get tired
'Cause this will slip away, slip away
And start a fire
That can never be put out
Oh, hurry, time is running out
But don't you run away, run away
Before you tell her you love her

You love her
