Tell Me You Love Me
[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, tell me you love me
Just so that we can say we tried, say we tried
Tell me you love me, yeah, yeah
Tell me you love me, yeah, yeah
Just so that we can say we tried, say we tried

[Verse 1]
I unpacked my chest for you
Do everything that you want me to
Can't believe I gave you all my love
What in the world was I thinkin' of?
I just let it all slip away
With every minute, hour of the day
And if we're really meant to be, just you and me
Why do I still feel incomplete?

[Chorus]
Tell me, yeah
(Tell me you love me)
I need to know, baby
(Just so that we can say we tried, say we tried)
I got to know
(Tell me you love me)
Tell me, yeah
(Tell me you love me)
Tell me that you love me
(Just so that we can say we tried, say we tried)
[Verse 2]
If I give you what you need
Would you do the same thing for me?
'Cause I don't wanna be alone
I want you here all night long
'Cause when you leave me, baby
I'm thinkin' 'bout you always
I'm ashamed to say
How much I want you to stay

[Chorus]
Baby, tell me, yeah (Tell me you love me)
I need to know
(Just so that we can say we tried, say we tried)
I got to know
Tell me you love me, tell me
(Tell me you love me)
Tell me that you love me
(Just so that we can say we tried, say we tried)

[Outro]
Now you see
I'm not tryin' to make a big fuss over this
But I'm just sayin', you need to let me know how you feel sometimes
Say it, it's not wrong, expressing yourself?
That's what wo— women like that, you know what I'm sayin'?
You know, you got to tap into your romantic side
(Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me that you love me)
Shoot, return the love, baby, return the love
I need to know, I wanna know
I need to know, I wanna know (I got to know)
I need to know, I want to know
(Just so that we can say we tried, say we tried)
(Tell me you love me, tell me you love me)
(Just so that we can say we tried, say we tried)
(Tell me you love me, tell me you love me)
I got to know, oh, tell me
Tell me that you love me, love me, love me, love me, baby
(Tell me you love me)
That you love me, love me, love me, love me
Just so that we can say we tried, say we tried
Yeah, yeah, tell me you love me
Just so that we can say we tried, say we tried
