(Charles Hardin - J. I. Allison)

CHORUS:
Tell me how to keep your love
You know how I need your love
Tell me how you keep the love
Within your heart from me

Don't you know that I love you?
Let me show why I'm true blue
When I know a love is true
Don't keep your love for me

BRIDGE:
If you would say to me today
"The time for love is now,"
Could I sway your love my way?
Then I say,"Tell me how."

(Chorus)
(Instrumental break)

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
(Chorus)
(Instrumental break)

Tell me how you keep the love
Within your heart from me
