Lyrics

Valenti
Every time I try to tell where you're goin' wrong
You run and hide your head and call me crazy
All I tried to tell you was that you could get it on
If you just wouldn't be so lazy
Oh, what can we do, oh I tried to tell you, everything is true
I'm tryin' to tell you I've tried everything I knew, ooh, to try and tell you
The truth ... I wanna tell you the truth, baby, I wouldn't ever lie to you
I'm gonna tell you the truth now
Every time I try to point out the way you're goin' down
You run and drown another jug of whiskey
And when I said you had to get together, try to love you brother
Did I hit you with too heavy of a mystery?
Oh, what can we do, I believe in you, how can I tell you, everything is true
I tried to tell you, I tried everything I knew, ooh to try to tell you
The truth ... I wanna tell you the truth, baby, tell you the truth
And no I'd never lie to you, ooh, to try to tell you the truth, baby, truth
I wouldn't never never never ...
I watch you count the spaces passing by
Makes me want to cry, get the strangest kind of old lonely
As the oceans overlfow with people come and people go
And still you're only make-believin'
Baby, what can we do? I believe in you, how can I tell you, everything is true
And I tried to tell you the truth ... [etc]
