*Talking*

Yo heh heh tell him it's like uhh you know uhh

*Singing*

Sweet sweet sweet tell him

Let me be patient let me be kind

Make me unselfish without being blind

Though I may suffer I'll envy it not

And endure what comes

Cause he's all that I got and

tell him...

Chorus

Tell him I need him [yeah]

Tell him I love him [tell him]

And it'll be alright

*Background singing* Telll himmm be alright be alright

Tell him tell him I need him

Tell him I love him

It'll be alright

Now I may have faith to make mountains fall

But if I lack love then I am nothin' at all

I can give away everything I possess

But left without love then I have no happiness

I know I'm imperfect [I know I'm imperfect]

& not without sin [& not without sin]

But now that I'm older all childish things end

and tell him...

Chorus

Bridge

I'll never be jealous

And I won't be too proud

Cause love is not boastful

Oooh and love is not loud

Tell him I need him

Tell him I love him

Everything's gonna be alright [w/ adlibs]

Oooh oooh yeah yeah aww yeah

Now I may have wisdom and knowledge on Earth

But if I speak wrong then what is it worth?

See what we now know is nothing compared

to the love that was shown when our lives were spared

and tell him...

Chorus w/ adlibs til fade
