Tell Him Lyrics
Da-da-da
[Verse 1: Moonchild]
I listen and listen and listen
Weary of the line
He’s looking for help
But somehow
My lips start the fire
I give him the food I’m making
I give him the money I’m saving
He won’t hear a thing I’m saying
Just wanna make it right
[Chrous: Moonchild, Lalah Hathaway, Both]
Crazy how a kiss
Takes the power from your lips
He don’t wanna hear it from me
Hear it from me
Crazy how a kiss
Takes the power from your lips
He’s not gonna hear it from me
Hear it from me
[Bridge: Moonchild, Lalah Hathaway]
You gonna have to tell him
You gonna have to tell him
You gonna have to tell him
You gonna have to tell him
[Verse 2: Lalah Hathaway]
I loved him and loved him and loved him
Somewhere along the line
He misplaced his trust
Or it grew thin
And I gave up the fight
I give him the love I’m saving
I give him the food I’m making
He won’t hear a thing I’m saying
Just wanna make it right
[Chrous: Moonchild, Lalah Hathaway, Both]
Crazy how a kiss
Takes the power from your lips
He don’t wanna hear it from me
Hear it from me
Crazy how a kiss
Takes the power
He won’t hear it from me
[Outro: Both]
You gonna have to tell him
You gonna have to tell him
You gonna have to tell him
You gonna have to tell him
Da-da-da
Tell Him Q&A
Who wrote Tell Him's ?
Tell Him was written by Amber Navran.
Who produced Tell Him's ?
Tell Him was produced by Moonchild.
What have the artists said about the song?
Every time we’ve crossed paths with Lalah, we’ve talked about collaborating. When I reached out, it was the pandemic and musicians were not working. So, she had the time and sent us her vocals. We got all giddy when we got it back.

What did Moonchild say about "Tell Him"?
That was one of the first beats I made during our ‘song a day’ month. It was originally called ‘Next Door Painter’, because the drum groove is really propelled by the sound of brushes.
