Tell Me Lyrics in English Letters (Romanized)
Back On This Rollercoaster Ride
Got Me Spinning In,
Got Me Spinning Wild,
Took All My Energy And Time
Gave Me Crazy Love,
For A Little While.
Take A Minute Boy,
To Tell Me How You Were
So Careless With My Heart.
Stop ! Get On Rewind.
Tell Me Why You Were
So Reckless From The Start.
Tell Me Just Keep Telling Me
You Will Make It Right,
Even While I Cry.
Just Tell Me,
Just Keep Telling Me
What You’re Gonna Do.
Cause I Don’t Wanna Say
Bye-bye. Bye Bye
Then You Said Let’s Get On A Plane.
We Need Sun And Sand.
I Thought Wonderland,
Then As You Wore Those Angel Eyes ,
I Was Hypnotised,
Mesmerised, Enticed.
Even As I Tried
You Were Breaking All The Rules
We Set So High,
As We Headed Back,
Someone Rolled A Cruel Dice
And Angels Cried.
Tell Me Just Keep Telling Me
You Will Make It Right
Even While I Cry
Just Tell Me Just Keep Telling Me
What You’re Gonna Do
Cause I Don’t Wanna Say,
Bye-bye, Bye Bye
This Is Gonna Go Down Into History,
Like Hera Standing Tall
While You Live Your Darkest Fantasy
Like Zeus You Did Fall
Tell Me Just Keep Telling Me
You Will Make It Right,
Even While I Cry.
Just Tell Me,
Just Keep Telling Me
What You’re Gonna Do.
Cause I Don’t Wanna Say Bye-bye.
Tell Me Just Keep Telling Me
You Will Make It Right,
Even While I Cry.
Just Tell Me,
Just Keep Telling Me
What You’re Gonna Do.
Cause I Don’t Wanna Say Bye-bye.
Bye Bye!

Tell Me Song Description
The song 'Tell Me', written, sung, and composed by 'Jeanne Merchant' with music produced by 'Anshuman Sharma' for 'Merchant Records', explores the emotional turmoil of a broken relationship. The lyrics describe feeling lost on a "rollercoaster ride" of intense but fleeting love, where someone gave "crazy love for a little while" but was "careless" and "reckless" with the singer's heart. The singer is hurt and confused, repeatedly asking their partner to "tell me" how they will fix the situation, pleading "I don't wanna say bye-bye" because they still hold onto hope.
The story deepens as the singer recalls a romantic escape, a trip for "sun and sand" that felt like "wonderland," where they were "hypnotised" by their partner's "angel eyes." However, this happiness was shattered as promises were broken, "rules we set so high" were disregarded, and a "cruel dice" was rolled, making "angels cry." This contrast between beautiful moments and deep betrayal shows the painful conflict between wanting to believe in the relationship and facing its reality.
Ultimately, the song uses powerful imagery, comparing this doomed love story to a myth "gonna go down into history." The singer sees themselves as "Hera standing tall," resilient, while the partner lives a "darkest fantasy" and falls "like Zeus." Despite the pain and the clear signs the relationship is over, the chorus returns with a desperate, repeated plea for reassurance—"just keep telling me you will make it right"—highlighting the difficult struggle of letting go and the deep desire to avoid that final goodbye.
