(Hardin / Allison / Petty)
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 our love is true,
Don't keep your love from me.

If you would say to me today
The time for love is now,
Well could I sway your love my way,
Then I'd say 'Tell me how.'
