Lyrics of 'Tell Me' by Al Jarreau

On our website, we have the complete lyrics of the song Tell Me that you were looking for.

Tell me the reason why you say
You wanna look around
Tell me what takes you far away
Leavin' me on the ground
All of the things you do and say
Turnin' me upside down
I can't go on and on this way
Stumblin' round 'n' round

Do, do, do
So won't you?
Won't you come on? Say it!
Don't you know you gotta love me?
You gotta want me

Tell me what I should say or do
How do I catch your eye?
I made a goddess out of you
Ready to do or die
Gathered a thousand stars for you
Took 'em right out the sky
Tell me you dream about me too
Tell me a tender lie

CHORUS:

Well there's a sparrow without a wing
And there's a song with no one to sing
And there's a fool on the hill
Who thinks he's doin' fine
You roam the world
In your lonely flight
Singing songs in the dead of night
And everything seems to be all right
But not inside wooh ooh ooh ooh

So tell me that you won't hesitate
Betcha we make a rhyme
We've gotta take the hands of fate
While we are in our prime
Come on and help me syncopate
Let your heart beat like mine
This is an easy step to take
Easy to dance in time

CHORUS:

Tell me the reason why you say
You wanna look around
Tell me what takes you far away
Leavin' me on the ground

Tell me what I should say or do
How do I catch your eye?
Tell me that you won't hesitate
Betcha we make a rhyme

CHORUS:
