"Tell Me" lyrics

Tell me what's it all about
Everytime you wanna keep a good man down
Tell me how do you sleep at night
Knowing that my heart is hurting deep inside

I had a butterfly
That was swimming around in my head
So deep was that love affair
Making all the bad decisions
But I never knew better
The fault was my own
My mind was so gone
And I thought I'd never get
Away from my reality
No sign that I could see
Now that I woke up from a really bad dream

Tell me what's it all about
Everytime you wanna keep a good man down
Tell me how do you sleep at night
Knowing that my heart is hurting deep inside

I guaranteed your love but not because of who you are
But what you brought out in me
I know everybody else agrees
You'd be the perfect match for me
Tell me why you wanna denounce
The reason why you wanna pull the plug
If not for love I don't know what it was, yay
It still haunts me to this day
How you can just walk away
Tell me why

Tell me what's it all about
Everytime you wanna keep a good man down
Tell me how do you sleep at night
Knowing that my heart is hurting deep inside

Why you have fa lead me down the road uh
Give me lovin' just kinda sorta
Had we love you tried to kill your mortality
And we lack what it would take thats credibility
Well you had me just stringing along to your tune
Got me thinking that I loved you to the moon
Ever heard the term that there was no room
Better you just move from home

I never really thought I could live without you
Kind of situation got me to doubt you

Tell me what's it all about
Everytime you wanna keep a good man down
Tell me how do you sleep at night
Knowing that my heart is hurting deep inside
