Tell Her No
Resisting Temptation: A Song of Unrequited Love
Lyrics
And if she should tell you "Come closer"
If she tells you to come closer, indicating a desire for intimacy.
And if she tempts you with her charms
If she entices you with her charms, suggesting a seductive allure.
Tell her no no no no no-no-no-no
Expressing a strong refusal, saying "no" repeatedly, signaling a rejection.
No no no no no-no-no-no
-No no no no no
-Don't hurt me now for her love belongs to me
Cautioning not to hurt the speaker for the love she possesses already belongs to him.
And if she should tell you "I love you" Uh, oh-oh-oh
If she confesses love to you with an exclamation, expressing affection.
And if she tempts you with her charms
If she uses her charms again to tempt you.
Tell her no no no no no-no-no-no (oh, oh-oh)
Repeating a firm rejection, emphasizing not to take her love into your arms.
No no no no no-no-no-no (don't take her love for your arms)
-No no no no no, (uh, oh-oh)
-Don't hurt me now for her love belongs to me
Reiterating the warning not to cause harm, as her love is already committed to the speaker.
I know she's the kind of girl
Acknowledging that she is the type of girl who might discard the speaker's love.
Who'd throw my love away
Expressing a continuing love despite the possibility of rejection.
But I still love her so
Reaffirming the enduring affection despite potential challenges.
Don't hurt me now, don't hurt me now
Stressing not to cause harm, reinforcing the vulnerability of the speaker's feelings.
If she tells you "I love you"
If she declares love to you, with a reminder that she said the same to the speaker.
Just remember she said that to me
Asserting that her previous expression of love belongs to the speaker.
Tell her no no no no no-no-no-no (oh, oh-oh)
Repeating the firm refusal, advising against taking her love into your arms.
No no no no no-no-no-no (don't take her love for your arms)
-No no no no no, (uh, oh-oh)
-Don't hurt me now for her love belongs to me
Reiterating the plea not to cause harm, emphasizing the exclusivity of her love for the speaker.
