tell him the truth

hilson, keri

if you've ever kept a secret

from the one you love

this is what it feels like

if you thought that i was perfect

boy you were wrong

i'm far from that

there's one thing that i've done to you

that i regret and

look i know it's no excuse but

i'm only human and young at that

and i'm gonna make mistakes

and hope you understand

didn't see it comin

wasn't on purpose

baby i promise

i didn't mean to hurt you

will you forgive me

you didn't deserve this

i know it wasn't worth it

i'm a tell him the truth

tell him the truth

gotta tell him the truth

tell him the truth

gotta tell him the truth

tell him the truth

tell him the truth

tell him the truth

didn't see when i had tears rolling down my face

i turned my back

it was heavy on the tongue

and i knew that you knew something was wrong

i was about to break open spill out everything

but something said

keri wait

things are going great

what you gonna say

i don't know maybe something like

didn't see it comin

wasn't on purpose

baby i promise

i didn't mean to hurt you

will you forgive me

you didn't deserve this

i know it wasn't worth it

i'm a tell him the truth

gotta tell him the truth

and tired

gotta tell him the truth ooh

and tired

gotta tell him the truth ooh

guess i've been waitin for the stars to align

there's no perfect time

i gotta tell him the truth

cause it's hard to build the truth on a lie

and if that's what i want

i gotta tell him the truth

i'm a tell him the truth
