I've Told You Now

You know what I mean
It's like walking in the heat all day with no water

It's like waiting for a friend
Watching everybody else meet theirs on that corner

Or losing in an argument
Though you're right, can't get your thoughts in order

Still I refrain from talking at you, talking on
You know me well, I don't explain

But what the hell
Why do you think I come round here on my free will?
Wasting all my precious time
Oh the truth spills out and oh
Oh I, I've told you now

You know what I mean
Although I try my best
I still let down the team

You're everything I want
Why should I resist
When you are there for me
