Tell Me
Echoes of Love and Loss: Goldfinger's 'Tell Me' Unveiled
Lyrics
Tell me what it's like to be with you
Tell me about the experience of being with you
Remind me of the things we use to do
Bring back memories of activities we used to engage in
And tell me that this time will never end
Assure me that our time together will be everlasting
Tell me what it's like, tell me again
Reiterate the description of the experience with you
Everytime you stay
Whenever you stay, the atmosphere lacks the previous charm
It never feels quite the same
The feeling when you stay is not as fulfilling
And everytime you go
Each time you depart, it causes a pain I can't express
It hurts a way you'll never know
The hurt of your departure is beyond understanding
I guess your stories
Your narratives make me believe everything is fine now
Make me feel like it's alright now
Feeling reassured by the stories you tell
Tell me what it's like to be with you
Requesting a description of the experience of being with you again
Remind me of the things we used to do
Evoke memories of past shared activities
And tell me that this time will never end
Express the desire for the current moment to be eternal
Tell me what it's like, tell me again
Repeat the request for a detailed account of being with you
Everything I fear
Every fear becomes apparent when you are present
Shows itself everytime you're here
Your presence exposes all my anxieties
And everything I know
Everything I understand disappears when you leave
Leaves with you everytime that you go
Your departure takes away my knowledge and certainty
I wish your stories
Wishing that your stories could erase the impact of my words
Could erase all the things that I said
Hoping that the narratives you share can undo the consequences of what I've said
So tell me what it's like to be with you
Repeating the request for a description of the experience with you
Remind me of the things we use to do
Nostalgically recalling past shared activities
And tell me that this time will never end
Expressing the desire for the current moment to be everlasting
Tell me what it's like, tell me again
Reiterating the request for a detailed account of being with you
You look that way (You look that way)
Commenting on a specific way of looking
Don't want to see you look that way
Unwilling to witness a particular expression or appearance
You talk that way (You talk that way)
Commenting on a specific way of speaking
Don't want to feel this way
Unwilling to experience a particular emotional state
So tell me what it's like to be with you
Repeating the request for a description of the experience with you
Remind me of the things we use to do
Rekindling memories of past shared activities
And tell me that this time will never end
Expressing the desire for the current moment to be everlasting
Tell me what it's like, tell me again
Reiterating the request for a detailed account of being with you
