[Verse 1]
When you're fed up, shedding too many tears
And your memories seem like just so many souvenirs
I will come to you to ease the pain
[Chorus]
If you want me, tell me now
If I can be of any help, tell me how
Let me love you like a friend
Everything is going to come right in the end
[Verse 2]
When you're crying like a poor little child
And you're feeling like you never could be reconciled
Don't forget a word of what I'm saying
Oh
[Chorus]
If you want me, tell me now
If I can be of any help, tell me how
Let me love you like a friend
Everything is going to come right in the end
[Bridge]
Well, I can hold you too tight
I could never let you go but that wouldn't be right
So why don't you let me know (let me know)
Let me know what you wanna do?
[Verse 3]
Everybody's got a handful of fear
But tomorrow, it may only be a souvenir
Of the way it was till it went away
[Chorus]
If you want me, tell me now
If I can be of any help, tell me how
Let me love you like a friend
Every little thing is going to come right in the end
[Bridge]
Well, I can hold you too tight
I could never let you go, but that wouldn't be right
So, why don't you let me know what you wanna do?
[Chorus]
If you want me, tell me now (You want me... tell me now)
If I can be of any help, tell me how (Tell me how)
Let me love you like a friend (Let me love you... like a friend)
Every little thing is going to come right in the end (Right in the end)
[Outro]

When you're fed up, shedding too many tears

If you want me, tell me now

Everything is going to come right in the end
