Lyrics

[Chorus]

Talk is cheap, but the words cut deep

Promises get old, they get hard to keep

Tell me, please, 'cause I'm losing sleep

Do you want my love? Is it obsolete?

[Verse 1]

Always was so easy hanging out

But it sure doesn’t feel like that now

I know that you have been feeling rough

Or are you falling out of love?

[Chorus]

Talk is cheap, but the words cut deep

Promises get old, they get hard to keep

[Verse 2]

Tell it to me straight, don't tell me lies

Believe when I say I’ll be alright

'Cause I'm already talking like it's done

Saying things like, "At least we had some fun"

And things like, "I guess we met too young"

[Chorus]

But the words cut deep

Promises get old, they get hard to keep

Tell me, please, 'cause I'm losing sleep

Do you want my love? Is it obsolete?

[Chorus]

Jealousy lurking underneath

It’s a warning sign that you never see

Tell me, please, tell me honestly

Do you want my love? Is it obsolete?

[Bridge]

Just tell me what is up

Tell me what is up

I’ve almost had enough

You’re playing with my love

Just tell me what is up

Yes, really, what the fuck?

I may not be your man

But I would understand

I would understand

I may not be your man

But I would understand

[Outro]

Just tell it like it is to me, baby

Just say I'm right, I'll do the rest, baby
