Don't tell me to stop

Tell the rain not to drop

Tell the wind not to blow

'Cause you said so, mmm

Tell the sun not to shine

Not to get up this time, no, no

Let it fall by the way

But don't leave me where I lay down

Tell me love isn't true

It's just something that we do

Tell me everything I'm not

(first time:) But please don't tell me to stop

(all other times:) But don't ever tell me to stop

Tell the leaves not to turn

But don't ever tell me I'll learn, no, no

Take the black off a crow

But don't tell me I have to go

Tell the bed not to lay

Like the open mouth of a grave, yeah

Not to stare up at me

Like a calf down on its knees

Tell me love isn't true

It's just something that we do

Tell me everything I'm not

(first time:) But please don't tell me to stop

(all other times:) But don't ever tell me to stop

(chorus, prefixing 1st and 3rd lines with "Don't you ever")

[Don't you ever]

Please don't

Please don't

Please don't tell me to stop

[Don't you ever]

Don't you ever

Don't ever tell me to stop

[Tell the rain not to drop]

Tell the bed not to lay

Like a open mouth of a grave, yeah

Not to stare up at me

Like a calf down on its knees
