I like to be told
When you're going away
When you're going to come back
And how long you'll stay
How long you will stay
I like to be told

I like to be told
If it's going to hurt
If it's going to be hard
If it's not going to hurt
I like to be told
I like to be told

It helps me to get ready for all those things
All those things that are new
I trust you more and more
Each time that I'm
Finding those things to be true

I like to be told
'Cause I'm trying to grow
'Cause I'm trying to learn
And I'm trying to know
I like to be told
I like to be told
