Lyrics:

You dropped those letters on me hard
I'm not ready for this part
We're having fun, ain't that enough?
And labels only mess it up

'Cause now we're lying here
It's late at night
You say you love me, girl
I don't know why
It might be too late to apologize
Baby, I can't just say it though

How can I tell you that I love you when I don't?
(I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't)
How can I tell you that I love you when I don't?
(I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't)
How can I tell you that I love you?

Teardrops on your steering wheel (steering wheel)
Broken hearts are hard to heal
Wish I could tell you what you want to hear
But I can't control the way I feel, yeah

'Cause now we're lying here
It's late at night
You say you love me, girl
I don't know why (don't know why)
It might be too late to apologize
Baby, I can't just say it though (uh)

How can I tell you that I love you when I don't?
(I don't, I don't, I don't)
How can I tell you that I love you when I don't?
(I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't)
How can I tell you that I love you?

How can I tell you, tell you?
How can I tell you? Oh
How can I tell you, tell you?
How can I tell you? Oh
How can I tell you, tell you?
How can I tell you? Oh
How can I tell you, tell you?
How can I tell you? Oh

But now we're lying here
It's late at night (late at night)
You say you love me, girl
I don't know why (don't know why)
It might be too late to apologize (apologize)
Baby, I can't just say it though

How can I tell you that I love you when I don't?
(I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't)
How can I tell you that I love you when I don't?
(I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't)
How can I tell you that I love you?

How can I tell you, tell you?
How can I tell you? Oh
How can I tell you, tell you?
How can I tell you? Oh
How can I tell you, tell you?
How can I tell you? Oh
How can I tell you, tell you?
How can I tell you? Oh
