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 and I think of   Every single night and day?      But when is it easy   Telling someone we're through?   Oh, girl, help me 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?
