Tell Me Something About Love

You left your scarf on my chair Blue thread, red tag, still there I keep it folded by the door Like you might come back for more Your laugh in the hallway light Felt like rain on a summer night I tried to act like I was fine But your name kept crossing my mind So tell me, baby, what is this? Why does your touch still feel like this? I swear I moved, I swear I tried Still your shadow won't divide Tell me something about love Tell me something I can trust When you hold me like you mean it I start falling in the dust Tell me something about love Say it slow, say it enough 'Cause my hands still know your heartbeat And I can't let that part go (go, go) Coffee stains on your old note Three words scribbled in the quote I found it tucked inside a book Right where you said I should look Now the plate for two sits cold Half a song, one story told I keep your last text unread Like a flame under the bed So tell me, baby, what is this? Why does your touch still feel like this? I swear I moved, I swear I tried Still your shadow won't divide Tell me something about love Tell me something I can trust When you hold me like you mean it I start falling in the dust Tell me something about love Say it slow, say it enough 'Cause my hands still know your heartbeat And I can't let that part go (go, go) If love is just a wound Then why do I keep mine clean? If you're a door I can't close Why do you still live in me? Say my name, then stay awhile Let the truth come out this time If we're only almost done Why does it still feel alive? Tell me something about love Tell me something I can trust When you hold me like you mean it I start falling in the dust Tell me something about love Say it slow, say it enough 'Cause my hands still know your heartbeat And I can't let that part go (go, go) Tell me something about love Tell me something I can trust Say it like you mean forever Or don't say it at all, my love (oh-oh)
