Confess
Confess, confess
Why don't you confess
Say yes, say yes
I wish you'd reveal to me
Reveal to me
The way that you feel
Why don't you tell me the way that you feel
Confess
Confess, confess
Confess, it isn't a crime
Oh no, no crime
To open your heart to me
Confide in me
And say that you're mine
Why don't ya tell me you're gonna be mine
How long can I keep waiting
For a tender word from you
The sweetest rose starts fading
When the sunshine won't come through
Confess
Confess, confess
Please don't make me guess
Don't make me guess
If you really care for me
If you could care
Then darling confess
Confess
Confess, confess
Why don't you confess
Say yes, say yes
I wish you'd reveal to me
Reveal to me
The way that you feel
You know the way that I feel
Confess
Confess, confess
It isn't a crime
Oh no, no crime
To open your heart to me
Confide in me
Then say that you're mine
Why don't you tell me you're gonna be mine
How long can I keep waiting
For a tender word from you
The sweetest rose starts fading
When the sunshine won't come through
Confess
I'm ready now to confess
Pleas don't make me guess
Uh, us won't make you guess
If you really care for me
I really do
Then darling confess
So now, let's both confess.
Confess, confess

The way that you feel
Why don't you tell me the way that you feel

Confess, confess
Confess, it isn't a crime
Oh no, no crime
To open your heart to me
Confide in me
And say that you're mine
Why don't ya tell me you're gonna be mine
How long can I keep waiting
For a tender word from you
The sweetest rose starts fading
When the sunshine won't come through
Confess
Confess, confess
Please don't make me guess
Don't make me guess
