Billy Joel - Tell Her About it lyrics

Listen boy I 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

Oh, 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 and
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 ensure 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
And 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
Just 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've got to tell her about it
You know the girl don't want to wait
You got to tell her about it
You got to tell, tell, tell her about it
Now, tell her about it
