He knows when I'm lonesome he's there when I'm sad
He's up in the good times he's down in the bad
Whenever I'm discouraged he knows just what to do
The boy doesn't know about you
I can tell him my troubles he makes 'em all seem right
I can make up excuses not to hold him at night
We can talk of tomorrow I tell him things that I wanna do
But boy how can I tell him about you
How can I tell him about you
Boy please tell me what to do
Everything seems right whenever I'm with yo--u
So boy won't you tell me how to tell him about you a--h a--h o--oh
How can I tell him I don't miss him whenever I?m away
How can I say it's you I think of every single night and day
But when is it easy telling someone we're through
Oh boy help me tell him about you
How can I tell him about you
Boy please tell me what to do
Everything seems right whenever I'm with yo--u
So boy won't you tell me how to tell him about you a--h a--h o--oh
