Say you can't take no more
She's out the door
And you're lookin' for a friend
When I tell you why
I'm just curious why you're furious
Just follow your pride
And look her in the eye

And tell her that you love her
Tell her that you need her
Tell her that you want her to stay
Reassure her with a kiss
She may never know
Unless you show her what you're feelin'
Tell her you're believin'
Even though it's hard to say
'Cause she needs to know you're thinkin' of her
So open up and tell her that you love her

Brother I've been right where you are now
My heart was broke
'Cause I never spoke
Those words out loud
But I've learned my lesson well
And now every night before I close my eyes
I look at my woman and I ask myself
Did you...

And tell her that you love her
Tell her that you need her
Tell her that you want her to stay
Reassure her with a kiss
She may never know
Unless you show her what you're feelin'
Tell her you're believin'
Even though it's hard to say
'Cause she needs to know you're thinkin' of her
So open up and tell her that you love her

Oh tell her that you love her

And tell her that you love her
Tell her that you need her
Tell her that you want her to stay
Reassure her with a kiss
She may never know
Unless you show her what you're feelin'
Tell her you're believin'
Even though it's hard to say
'Cause she needs to know you're thinkin' of her
So open up and tell her that you love her

Oh yes... tell her that you love her
