Tell Her You Love Her
Echosmith Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell her a story
Tell her the honest truth
You treat her better
Make sure to see it through

Don't be just everything she wants
Be everything she needs
When she says she loves you
Tell her you love her too

Oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh

Give her a reason
Reason to love all you do

She'll tell you secrets
You'll tell her secrets too
She'll tell you all her hopes and dreams
You'll tell them too

When she says she loves you
Tell her you love her too
Tell her you love her too

But don't you run away run away
When you get tired
'Cause this will slip away slip away
And start a fire
That can never be put out
Oh hurry time is running out
But don't you run away run away
Before you say
You love her

Oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh

When she says she needs you
Tell her you need her too
You tell her clearly
Speak what your heart wants you to
Tell her she's lovely
Always tell her the truth

When she says she loves you
Tell her you love her too
But don't you run away run away
When you get tired
'Cause this will slip away slip away
And start a fire
That can never be put out
Oh hurry time is running out
But don't you run away run away
Before you say
You love her





Oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh
