Lake Street Dive - Better Not Tell You Lyrics

Don't paint me a picture, I'd rather write it on the wall
I got me a system, I don't need to read a crystal ball
This sweet premonition is pretty convincing after all
'Cause I'm sure I know what the future holds
And what cards are gonna fall

Oh, but I better not tell you, better not tell you now
I got a secret baby
Better not tell you, better not tell you now
And I'm gonna keep it
I don't know if you heard
But baby, actions speak louder than words
So I better not tell you, better not tell you

It's fairly hard to be patient waiting for the future to unfold
It's a keen observation saying the fortune favors the bold
I got a prognostication if you could just give me you hand to hold
I would have no doubt, I could go all out
But when you lean in so close

Oh, but I better not tell you, better not tell you now
I caught a feeling baby
Better not tell you, better not tell you now
We're up to the ceiling
Oh, we could leave it in the hand of fate
Or baby, we could take a leap of faith
Either way I better not tell you, better not tell you

All in good time
I'll tell you everything

Oh, but I better not tell you, better not tell you now
I got a feeling baby
Better not tell you, better not tell you now
And I'm gonna keep it, yeah
Better not tell you, better not tell you now (better not tell you now, oh)
Better not tell you, better not tell you now (I got a secret)
Better not tell you, better not tell you now (better not tell you now)
Better not tell you, better not tell you now (better not tell you now)
Better not tell you, better not tell you now
