Couldn't I Just Tell You - 2015 Remaster

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

 Couldn't I just tell you the way I feel
