We could color it, wrap it up, tie it with a bow
We could sugarcoat, or be polite, say it isn't so
We could watch a movie 'til it's late then turn out the lights
Oh, but somethin' in this pretty house just isn't right So, let the walls come down, let it all fall down
Baby, make no excuse
I can't feel your love, take off the kid gloves
And love me like you really do
By tellin' me the simple truth Baby, lately we're on eggshells just tiptoein' around
And the silence is so deafening, it drowns out sound
But the honesty, the deep emotions, what we know is real
So even if you're hurt and angry, tell me how you feel So oh, let the walls come down, let it all fall down
Baby, make no excuse
I can't feel your love, take off the kid gloves
And love me like you really do
By tellin' me the simple truth Hey, what's goin' on in your head?
This is me you're talkin' to
Let's get down to the heart of the matter
'Cause that's all that matters So let the walls come down, let it all fall down
Baby, make no excuse
I can't feel your love, take off the kid gloves
And love me like you really do Oh let the walls come down, oh yeah
I can't feel your love, take off the kid gloves
And love me like you really do
By tellin' me the simple truth
Yeah, the simple truth
