lyrics
I lied to you, baby, but you gotta understand
If you'll hear me out I will tell you who I am
I'm not as strong as you think, but I've got a plan
If you wanna shut me up, just take me by the hand
I'm as kind and nice as an evening breeze
But when the storm blows in it still sweeps me off my feet
And maybe not much matters 'til it matters to me
But you're the only one who can put me at east
So come on, give me a reason
Come on, give me a sign
Come on, tell me you love me, tell me that you'll be mine
I'm a stubborn fool, you know it's true
When I'm back against a wall I don't know what to do
And you spin me around, you make me blue
But you're the only one that can pull me through
So come on, give me a reason
Come on, give me a sign
Come on, tell me you love me, tell me that you'll be mine
I lied to you, baby, but you gotta understand
It don't mean nothing, that's not what I am
I might let you down, but you know that I can
Make it up to you, yeah, again and again
So come on, give me a reason
Come on, give me a sign
Come on, tell me you love me, tell me that you'll . . .
Come on, give me a reason
Come on, give me a sign
Come on, tell me you love me, tell me that you'll be mine
