You and I, we both know we can leave this love behind
So no more lies, what's in our heart, can't be denied
Tell it like it is, tell it like it is, tell you that it's over
I've got to tell it like it is, tell it like it is, tell you that it's over, over

You're so sure, that you're in control, open and close the doors
The games you play, well I've had enough, I'm gonna find a new way
Tell it like it is, tell it like it is, tell you that I'm leaving
I've got to tell it like it is, tell it like it is, tell you that I'm leaving, all right

Now this love running blind, this can't go on anymore, no
And somewhere in time, though I've done this before, can't do it no more

Now love running blind, this can't go on anymore, no
And somewhere in time, though I've done this before, can't do it no more

Tell it like it is, tell it like it is, tell you that it's over
I've got to tell it like it is, tell it like it is, tell you that it's over, it's over baby
Tell it like it is, tell it like it is, tell you that it's over
Tell it like it is, tell it like it is, tell you that it's over, it's over

Tell it like it is, tell it like it is, tell you that it's over
Tell it like it is, tell it like it is, tell you that it's over
Tell it like it is, tell it like it is, tell you that it's over
Tell it like it is, tell it like it is, tell you that it's over, it's over

Tell it like it is, tell it like it is, tell you that it's over
Tell it like it is, tell it like it is, tell you that it's over, over, over
Tell it like it is, tell it like it is, tell you that it's over
