Don't tell me to stop Tell the rain not to drop Tell the wind not to blow 'Cause you said so
Tell me love isn't true It's just something we do Tell me everything I'm not but don't tell me to stop
Tell the sun not to shine Not to get up this time Let it fall by the way Leave me where I lay
Tell the leaves not to turn Just don't tell me I'll learn Take the black off a crow But don't tell me to go
Tell the bed not to lay Like the mouth of a grave Not to stare up at me Like a calf down on its knees
Tell me love isn't true It's just something we do Tell me everything I'm not but don't tell me to stop Tell me everything I'm not but don't tell me to stop
