| Listen boy
|
| Don’t want to see you let a good thing
|
| Slip away
|
| You know I don’t like watching
|
| Anybody make the same mistakes
|
| I made
|
| She’s a real nice girl
|
| And she’s always there for you
|
| But a nice girl wouldn’t tell you what you should do
|
| Listen boy
|
| I’m sure that you think you got it all
|
| Under control
|
| You don’t want somebody telling you
|
| The way to stay in someone’s soul
|
| You’re a big boy now
|
| You’ll never let her go
|
| But that’s just the kind of thing
|
| She ought to know
|
| Tell her about it
|
| Tell her everything you feel
|
| Give her every reason to accept
|
| That you’re for real
|
| Tell her about it
|
| Tell her all your crazy dreams
|
| Let her know you need her
|
| Let her know how much she means
|
| Listen boy
|
| It’s not automatically a certain guarantee
|
| To insure yourself
|
| You’ve got to provide communication constantly
|
| When you love someone
|
| You’re always insecure
|
| And there’s only one good way
|
| To reassure
|
| Tell her about it
|
| Let her know how much you care
|
| When she can’t be with you
|
| Tell her you wish you were there
|
| Tell her about it
|
| Every day before you leave
|
| Pay her some attention
|
| Give her something to believe
|
| Cause now and then
|
| She’ll get to worrying
|
| Just because you haven’t spoken
|
| For so long
|
| Though you may not have done anything
|
| Will that be a consolation when she’s gone
|
| Listen boy
|
| It’s good information from a man
|
| Who’s made mistakes
|
| Just a word or two that she gets from you
|
| Could be the difference that it makes
|
| She’s a trusting soul
|
| She’s put her trust in you
|
| But a girl like that won’t tell you
|
| What you should do
|
| Tell her about it
|
| Tell her everything you feel
|
| Give her every reason
|
| To accept that you’re for real
|
| Tell her about it
|
| Tell her all your crazy dreams
|
| Let her know you need her
|
| Let her know how much she means
|
| Tell her about it
|
| Tell her how you feel right now
|
| Tell her about it
|
| The girl don’t want to wait too long
|
| You got to tell her about it
|
| Tell her now and you won’t go wrong
|
| You got to tell her about it
|
| Before it gets too late
|
| You got to tell her about it
|
| You know the girl don’t want
|
| To wait — you got to
|
| Tell her about it |
