Couldn’t I Just Tell You

Lyrics

Keep your head and everything will be cool You didn't have to make me feel like a fool When I try to say I feel the way that I do I wanna talk to you And make it loud and clear Though you don't care to hear Couldn't I just tell you the way I feel? I can't keep it bottled up inside And could we pretend that it's no big deal And there's really nothing left to hide? Something sure doesn't seem right to me When you can turn your back whenever you please And you stroll away and calmly bid me adieu Why can't I talk with you And put it in your ear Though you don't care to hear? Couldn't I just tell you the way I feel? I can't keep it bottled up inside And could we pretend that it's no big deal And there's really nothing left to hide? Hear me out Why don't you lend me an ear? Hear me out You've got no reason to fear Hear me out I'll make it perfectly clear I love you I don't come whining with my heart on my sleeve I'm not a coward, if that's what you believe And I'm not afraid, but not ashamed, if it's true I gotta talk with you And then I'll make it clear Make it clear Couldn't I just tell you the way I feel? I can't keep it bottled up inside And could we pretend that it's no big deal And there's really nothing left to hide? Couldn't I just tell you the way I feel? I can't keep it bottled up inside Could we pretend that it's no big deal And there's really nothing left to hide?
