Story Behind the Song
This song came to be after Dave had a sudden break-up with a woman he was deeply interested in. Just as Dave wrote the lyrics, Scott came up with this catchy, harder guitar duet. The lyrics fit and the song was written. It was written in Dave and Scott's seperate basements over the course of a few weeks. It was recorded in one take for our "live" album.
Lyrics
Tell Me
Music by: Scott Perrie
Lyrics by: Dave Lewanda
I close my eyes to shut out from the world, yet all I see is your face
I try to go deaf to the world, still your voice rings inside my head
Thoughts and dreams of you, you and me, can not escape my mind
We seem to have great potential, we could save the world together
All I want is a truthful answer
Just tell me what you are thinking
Speak to me so I can answer
Just tell me what you are feeling, what are ya feeling
Explain it to me again, it doesn't seem that clear, why are you there, why am I here
What's wrong, what's the matter, I see you struggle, I reach out to you
I share my deepest of emotions, yet you hide behind walls, come out to the light with me
In the open, is it me, is it you or is really someone else, won't I find out in the end anyway
All I want is a truthful answer
Just tell me what you are thinking
Speak to me so I can answer
Just tell me what you are feeling, what are ya feeling
I close my eyes to shut out from the world, still all I see is your pretty face
I try so hard to go deaf to the world, still your voice rings deep inside my head
Thoughts and dreams of you and me together, can not escape my mind
We seemed to have the greatest of potential, we could have saved the world together
All I want is a truthful answer
Just tell me what you are thinking
Speak to me so I can answer
Just tell me what you are feeling, what are ya feeling
All I want is a truthful answer
Just tell me what you are thinking
Speak to me so I can answer
Just tell me what you are feeling, what are ya feeling
Just tell me...
