If I Have To Tell You

Robyn Harris


Battery getting low
On your burner phone
Tuck it safe under the sofa
When I'm home
You think I don't know
Think I don't
You're not alone
When I get the call
That says you'll be back later
Don't wait up for me

'Cuz you're drinking
Until I'm asleep
And you slip in
So we don't have to speak

But if I have to tell you
Every time you break me
How to make it right
If I have to tell you
Why I'm wide awake
In the dead of night
If you're in this
Then you'd fix it
Shouldn't have to say the
Things you already know
But if I have to tell you
I shouldn't have to
Tell you

Been holding out
For the come around
But it never came
I can't be sure that our
Situation will ever change
I think you don't know
Think you don't know that
I'm close to the end

You're drinking
Until I'm asleep
You slip in
So we don't have to speak

But if I have to tell you
Every time you break me
How to make it right
If I have to tell you
Why I'm wide awake
In the dead of night
If you're in this
Then you'd fix it
Shouldn't have to say the
Things you already know
But if I have to tell you
I shouldn't have to
Tell you
I shouldn't have to
Tell you

I shouldn't have to
Tell you I'm not fine
It's messing with my mind
You leave me to feel this way
Ask why I'm angry
Then make bad apologies
Don't you know it's too late

If I have to tell you
Every time you break me
How to make it right
If I have to tell you
Why I'm wide awake
In the dead of night

If I have to tell you
Every time you break me
How to make it right
If I have to tell you
Every time you break me
How to make it right
If I have to tell you
Why I'm wide awake
In the dead of night
If you're in this
Then you'd fix it
Shouldn't have to say the
Things you already know
But if I have to tell you
I shouldn't have to
Tell you
