Hear me out, you've got no reason to fear
I'm not a coward if that's what you believe
I can't keep it bottled up inside
I don't come whining with my heart on my sleeve
Though you don't care to hear
And could we pretend that it's no big deal
I can't keep it bottled up inside
Hear me out, why don't you lend me an ear?
Something sure doesn't seem right to me
I got to talk with you
And make it loud and clear
Why can't I talk with you?
When you can turn your back whenever you please
Make it clear, make it clear
I can't keep it bottled up inside
Though you don't care to hear
And could we pretend that it's no big deal
And put it in your ear
And then I'll make it clear
Couldn't I just tell you the way I feel?
But couldn't I just tell you the way I feel?
But couldn't I just tell you the way I feel?
And there's really nothing left to hide?
When I try to say, I feel the way that I do
Hear me out, I'll make it perfectly clear, I love you
I want to talk with you
And could we pretend that it's no big deal
And you stroll away, calmly bid me adieu
And I'm not afraid but not ashamed if it's true
And there's really nothing left to hide?
