She knows when I'm lonesome, she cries when I'm sad She's up in the good times, she's down in the bad Whenever I'm discouraged, she knows just what to do But, girl, she doesn't know about you I can tell her my troubles, she makes them all seem right I can make up excuses not to hold her at night We can talk of tomorrow, I'll tell her things that I want to do But, girl, how can I tell her about you? How can I tell her about you? Girl, please, tell me what to do Everything seems right whenever I'm with you So, girl, won't you tell me how to tell her about you How can I tell her I don't miss her whenever I'm away? How can I say it's you I think of every single night and day? But when is it easy telling someone we're through? Ah, girl, help me tell her about you
