All hands take the rope
Pull yourself into the mist
Big waves rock the boat
Somewhere in the South Pacific
The storm's about to break
Here's something real you can hold on to

So tell me, c'mon
Lead me to the stage
Make a big idea want to leap off the page
Tell me, c'mon
Help me work it out
You're the only one who knows what the words are about

All who abandon hope
I'll tell you what my secret wish is
A singer's got to find a note
True enough to make a difference

So tell me, c'mon
Lead me to the stage
Make a big idea want to leap off the page
Tell me, c'mon
Help me work it out
You're the only one who knows what the words are about
Strange sounds come to the party
And she wants to go home with me
Need someone to come to the rescue
Make some sense of what's been happening

So tell me, c'mon
Give it to me straight
I want to get my heart started
What's it going to take?
Tell me c'mon
Lead me to the stage
Make a big idea want to leap off the page
Tell me c'mon
Help me work it out
You're the only one who knows what the words are about
You're the only one who knows what the words are about
So tell me, c'mon
Tell me, c'mon
Tell me, tell me, c'mon
Alright
