You tell me it's over
And it's been that way for some time
Yet when you don't hear my voice for days
You still lose your mind
How long can you keep me, keep me hanging' on
There's something I need to know
Tell me, tell me, what do you want from me
'Cause I can't stand the pain
Tell me, tell me, what are you asking of me
I can't go on this way, yeah
I succumb to your every need
As you pull me in again
Then you turn like a battered child
As you say someday maybe we'll be friends
Your emotions are spinning, spinning round and round
But, someday it'll come to an end
So tell me, tell me, what do you want from me
'Cause I can't stand the pain
Tell me, tell me, what are you asking of me
I can't go on this way
You gotta make up your mind
You know something's got to give
Girl, you're running out of time
'Cause I've got a life to live
I don't know what I think
I'm holding on to or what we will find
'Cause baby, baby, baby, baby
I can't win if you say you're coming back
But I still lose, I still lose if you go
So, tell me, tell me, what do you want from me
'Cause I can't stand the pain
Tell me, tell me, what are you asking of me
I can't go on, can't go on this way
So, tell me, what do you want from me
'Cause I can't stand, I can't stant the pain
So, tell me, what are you asking of me
I can't go on, can't go this way
