about

Eli Resnick: lyrics, chords, acoustic guitar, upright bass, lead vocal, background vocal and harmonica.

This is one of the first few tracks of Eli's 64x30 project, in which he has set out to record sixty-four songs in the last sixty-four days of his twenties.

It got moved to the end of the current version of the album, due to the Tenacious-D style comedy in the middle. Sometimes it's better to just keep it simple, rather than risk parodying oneself.

lyrics

Tell her what you're gonna tell her. Tell her what she already knows. Tell her 'bout the change in the weather, the way the sunlight kisses her toes. Tell her with a song or a story, in less than five hundred words. Telling her is gonna be easy. It's just the getting ready that's so hard. And when the mood is fine and mellow and you both are feeling well, then it's a simple as saying, "hello," if you just show more than you tell...
