Tell me...

A song I originally wrote a decade ago

Tell me you love me then tell me you don't
Tell me no lies then I know you won't
Make me no promises that you can't keep
And I won't be there when you wake from you're sleep

I won't leave a note and I won't say goodbye
Cause after all who are we kidding this time
Like oil and water and fire and gas
We tried this before and it didn't last

(Chorus)
We have to leave these things buried in the past
What we had before could never ever last
We tried so hard to make it can't you see
The reality is I was never me

(Interlude)

Well now that you're gone and we've said our goodbyes
And promised each other not to tell lies
There's nothing to stop us from being here now
And nothing can change what this feelings about

(Interlude and Outro)
