Tell her not to go
  I ain't holding on no more
  Tell her something in my mind freezes up from time to time
  
  Tell her not to cry
  I just got scared that's all
  Tell her I'll be by her side, all she has to do is call
  
  Tell her the chips are down
  I drank too much and shouted it aloud
  Tell her something in my heart
  Needs her more than even clowns need the laughter of the crowd
  
  Tell her what was wrong
  I sometimes think to much
  But say nothing at all
  And tell her from this high terrain, I am ready now to fall
  
  Tell her not to go
  I ain't holding on no more
  Tell her nothing if not this; all I want to do is kiss her
  
  Tell her something in my mind
  Freezes up from time to time.
