I said I’m fine ‘cause I need your time
And I need you, babe, to say I’m right
And I know you better than I know my mind
And I know you better than I know why

You try and you try to relate
And you’re right, I’m dying like a beat on the set
If you told my story, if you wrote it down
Will you know the chapters and would you know how
If you told my story how would it sound?
And we could hear the love come out

I said without a spine that I need your help
Tell me no, but then I beg
I told you something, will you hold it in?
I told you nothing, what wouldn’t I try?

You try and you try to relate
And you’re right, I’m dying like a beat on the set
If you told my story, if you wrote it down
Would you know the chapters and would you know how
If you told my story how would it sound?
And we could hear the love come out

If you told my story, if you wrote it down
Would you know the chapters and would you know how
If you told my story how would it sound?
If we could hear the love come out
If we could hear the love come out

If you told my story, if you wrote it down
Would you know the chapters and would you know how
If you told my story how would it sound?
If we could hear the love come out
If we could hear the love come out

You try and you try to relate
And you’re right, I’m dying like a beat on the set
And you try and you try to relate
And you’re right, I’m dying like a beat on the set

If you told my story, if you wrote it down
Would you know the chapters and would you know how
If you told my story how would it sound?
And we could hear the love come out
