Tell Me What I Want Lyrics by Neverlyn

Beauty Sleep

2020

So tell me what I want
(You should listen up or you’ll regret it)
So tell me what I want to hear
(Maybe it’s my fault, I should’ve said it)
Until those words escape your lips
(Cause I haven’t heard enough)
I’m gonna sit right here
(But it’s not for lack of trying)
So tell me what I want
(Well if I’m wrong, we can just forget it)
So tell me what I wanna hear
(But if I’m right, give me some direction)
Maybe I should be complacent
(Cause I haven’t heard enough)
But I can’t keep waiting all year
(But it’s not for lack of trying)
For you to tell me what I want
Just tell me what I wanna hear
I know that I am guilty of it too
So let me make something clear
You’re all I ever wanted
You’re all I ever need
You’re all I ever think about
But honey do you think about me?
So c’mon can you see we can’t start over?
So I thought why should we wait any longer?
(Any longer)
Fill the space between my fingers
Leave your words and let them linger tonight, tonight
And tell me what I wanna hear
Oh, it’s never ending our deflecting
Stop pretending
(You know that you want this)
Yeah, it’s never ending
(Everyone I know tells me to go for it)
Oh, it’s never ending our deflecting
Stop pretending
(You know that you want this)
Yeah, it’s never ending
Everyone I know likes to talk about
Everything we do
If I was them I would too
Please tell me what I wanna hear
Now that I’ve laid everything out
Will it make you come around again?
Or push your thoughts back down?
Cause I can’t read your mind
And I don’t really even wanna try
Let me tell you what’s on mine and test my luck
You should come over we can watch T.V. and
So c’mon can you see we can’t start over?
So I thought why should we wait any longer?
(Any longer)
Fill the space between my fingers
Leave your words and let them linger tonight, tonight
And tell me what I wanna hear
Oh, it’s never ending our deflecting
Stop pretending
(You know that you want this)
Yeah, it’s never ending
(Everyone I know tells me to go for it)
Oh, it’s never ending our deflecting
Stop pretending
(You know that you want this)
Yeah, it’s never ending
Everyone I know likes to talk about
Everything we do
If I was them I would too
So tell me
That you like the band shirts that I wear
That my eyes remind you of the night sky
I make you nervous over looks we share
It’s like no one, it’s like no one else is there
Thinking back to the porch with the dim lights
You and me at your house sitting by the poolside
Thinking back to the way I felt that night
You and me confessing to feelings that we try to hide (x2)
Oh it’s never ending our deflecting
Stop pretending
(You know that you want this)
