[Verse 1]
Too black to be white
Too white to be black
You wanna tell me what else I lack
You wanna tell me what else I lack

[Verse 2]
Too left to be right
Too right to be left behind
I still pray to God at night
I still pray to God

[Pre-Chorus]
But he don't look like he used to
No, she don't look like she used to

[Chorus]
So tell me that you love me
Tell me that I'm still yours
Tell me that you need me
Tell me that I'm your cure
You're making me make-believe
A double-take to make sure
So tell me that you love
Tell me that you love
Tell me that you love
Tell me that you love me
[Verse 3]
Speak up, boy, say something
Too loud, better say nothing
You wanna tell me you got the facts
But we're just screaming from back to back

[Verse 4]
So wind me up, watch me go
Can't you see?
I don't know how to believe again
When the ground is shifting below

[Pre-Chorus]
It don't look like it used to
Ooh, nothing looks like it used to

[Chorus]
So tell me that you love me
Tell me that I'm still yours
Tell me that you need me
Tell me that I'm your cure
You're making me make-believe
A double-take to make sure
So tell me that you love
Tell me that you love
Tell me that you love
Tell me that you love me
[Bridge]
Black and blue
Who am I? Who are you?
I'll tell you my secrets
Please tell me yours too
Black and blue
Who am I? Who are you? (Who are you? Who are you?)

[Chorus]
So tell me that you love me
Tell me that I'm still yours
Tell me that you need me
Tell me that I'm your cure
You're making me make-believe
A double-take to make sure
So tell me that you love
Tell me that you love
Tell me that you love
Tell me that you love me
