Tell me beloved Why is there a tear in your eye? Sarah: It’s a trick of the winter light Love everything is fine C: Then tell me beloved Why are you now clenching your teeth? S: I didn’t dress for the winter air Should’ve worn another layer Whereas you’ve got your coat and wool underneath C: Then tell me beloved Why won’t you let me give you that coat? S: ‘Cause it’s good to be cold in the wintertime Love everything is— Fine it’s because you make me tell you And I don’t wanna have to tell you That I have nothing to tell you ‘Cause I’ve said it all said it all said it all before And you can’t make it all ok Make me say it all say it all again And darling we’ll be further from the end And closer to the forming of another circular mistake C: Tell me beloved Why are you angry with me? S: Well well well look who’s taking on The role of the hurting one Who can’t keep his heart off his sleeve C: Tell me beloved if I could where would we be now S: Some sweet place where it’s understood A girl doesn’t have to— C: Look I thought you wanted me to ask you And didn’t know what I should ask you S: I don’t wanna have to tell you That I have nothing to tell you ‘Cause I’ve said it all said it all said it all before And you can’t make it all ok Make me say it all say it all again And darling we’ll be further from the end C&S: Cause we’ve said it all said it all said it all before And we can’t make it all ok S: Make me say it all C: If we C&S: Say it all again And darling we’ll be further from the end And closer to the forming of another circular mistake C: Tell me beloved Why is there a tear in your eye?
