"Tell Me Straight" track talk
Nov 3^rd, 2023 at 11:15am

I love this song

Do we have something or nothing at all?
Just tell me straight
You got me high and it's quite a long fall
Tell me straight
Yeah, tell me straight

How do we finish, how do we start?
Tell me straight
How do we meet, how do we part?
Just tell me straight, just tell me straight

Everyone is asking questions
Answers just won't do
Yeah, I need a little time, just to clear my mind
Find out if it's true

Ooh, you're running too fast
Tell me straight
I need an answer, how long can this last?
Just tell me straight
Don't make me wait
Is my future all in the past?
Yeah, tell me straight, tell me straight

Everyone is asking questions
Yeah, I've got one or two
Just need a little time, just to clear the mind
And find out if it's true

Is the future all in the past?
Just tell me straight
Play me a song, life's moving too fast
Just tell me straight
Tell me straight

Thanks to a friend I just am listening to Low Down for the first time in literal years and I cannot stop thinking that the lyrics are basically almost the same in some parts...

"Give me the truth Just between me and you" vs. "Just tell me straight, just tell me straight", and "I just want to know where I stand" vs. "Do we have something or nothing at all?"

there also are some parallels to All About You...
