(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.'

Tell me how you keep the love

within your heart from me.
