Tell Me



Please tell me the words I need to hear
The words that will erase all of my fears
Only tell me if it is true
Only tell me if these words are meant only for me from you
I won't take anything less nothing else will do
It has to be from your heart, no hesitation and true
Let these words flow from deep inside
Tell me to my face with nothing to hide
Make me believe this has never once to another person been said
Make me feel like I am the only one you ever cared for in your bed
Pretend I am the only one to ever stay the night
Please make me believe when I am with you it is what you want in life
Let me be the only man that is ever on your mind
Tell me again you want me until the end of our time
Make me think that every man from your past to you is dead
Help me get rid of them as they keep passing through my head
So tell me again these words I long to hear
Whisper them so softy into my ear...................................................................
