[Verse 1]
Tell her we fight until the neighbors knock
And I am predisposed to wander off in thought
Tell her I fall asleep when we watch TV
And it drives you crazy having to rewind the scenes
But you do for me
Tell her my temper has a strong grip
I'm stubborn as a blood stain and we both know it
Tell her we laugh a lot and I've seen you cry
And it isn't lost on me she's the reason why
Tell her all about it

[Chorus]
Tell her I don't want to take her place
While you're at it, tell yourself the same thing
I know she's still your friend and that won't end
But I just need to hear I'm the one again
So if you don't want to see me leave, could you please

[Verse 2]
Tell me it's complicated being loved
Don't tell me I'm not trying hard enough
It feels like jealousy but underneath
There's a scared little girl who's a lot like me
So if you don't want to see me leave
[Chorus]
Tell her I don't want to take her place
While you're at it, tell yourself the same thing
I know she's still your friend and that won't end
But I just need to hear I'm the one again
So if you don't want to see me leave, could you please

[Bridge]
Tell me
Tell me
Tell me that you understand
Why I'm crying again
Tell me that we'll figure it out
Tell me that you'll tell the truth
I will do the same to you
I know we'll figure it out
Tell me that you understand
Why I'm crying again
Tell me that we'll figure it out
Tell me that you'll tell the truth
I will do the same to you
I know we'll figure it out

[Outro]
Tell me
Tell me
Tell me
Tell me
(I know we'll figure it out)
