Billy Joel – Tell Her About It: Lyrics and Music Video
Tell Her About It Lyrics
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
