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 rightSo, 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 truthBaby, 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 feelSo 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 truthHey, 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 mattersSo 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 doOh 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
