Tell her not to go 
I ain't holding on no more 
Tell her something in my mind freezes up from time to time 

Tell her not to cry 
I just got scared that's all 
Tell her I'll be by her side, all she has to do is call, all she has to do is call 

Tell her the chips are down 
I drank too much and shouted it aloud 
Tell her something in my heart 
Needs her more than even clowns need the laughter of the crowd 

Tell her what was wrong 
I sometimes think to much 
But say nothing at all 
And tell her from this high terrain, I am ready now to fall, i am ready now to fall 

Tell her not to go 
I ain't holding on no more 
Tell her nothing if not this; all I want to do is kiss her 

Tell her something in my mind 
Freezes up from time to time.
