Lyrics
Tell Me The Truth
I was walking down the street and our eyes did meet
You sidled up to me and the rest is history
Do you love me, really love me
Tell me the truth
Is your love real, do you feel the way I feel
Do you want to spend your life with me
Are you the real deal ?
Tell me, tell me the truth
I'd spend my life with only you
If you agreed to say "I Do"
But something seems to hold you back
You fob me off, that is that
So if the answer is to be no
I'll not protest, I'll turn and go
But you gotta tell me
Tell me the truth
But if you say yes, I'll jump for joy
I'd regard myself as a lucky boy
So please, please, please
Tell me the truth
If you decide to tell me yes
I'd know for sure that I've been blessed
If you decide
To tell me the truth
I'd spend my life with only you
If you agreed to say "I Do"
But something seems to hold you back
You fob me off, that is that
So if the answer is to be no
I'll not protest, I'll turn and go
But you gotta tell me
Tell me the truth
Tell me the truth
