Don't tell a girl how to feel
Don't tell a girl how to love
By the way you talk I got here all alone
When it really took the two of us

Don't tell a girl how to mean
These wounds I know that you'll never heal
Don't tell a girl how to love
Don't tell a girl how to feel

Something in your eyes
Leaving me with questions
All the highs and whys
left with no direction
Placing the blame
Wiser always in the say

Do the compromise
Dance our little dance
Shake and toss the dice
Give this thing another chance
A hundred times before
I've said it and I'll say it again
and again

Don't tell a girl how to feel
Don't tell a girl how to love
By the way you talk I got here all alone
When it really took the two of us

Don't tell a girl how to mean
These wounds I know that you'll never heal
Don't tell a girl how to love
Don't tell a girl how to feel

Well there's a way out of here
We can go it alone
Sooner or later the past you're holding onto
Is gonna let you go

Oh, oh

Trying to believe you
With this reservation
Someday you'll break free of all your hesitations
A hundred times before
I've said it and I'll say it again
And again

Don't tell a girl how to feel
Don't tell a girl how to love
By the way you talk I got here all alone
When it really took the two of us

Don't tell a girl how to mean
These wounds I know that you'll never heal
Don't tell a girl how to love
Don't tell a girl how to feel

Don't tell a girl how to love
Don't tell a girl how to feel
