Letra

And if she should tell you "come closer"
And if she tempts you with her charms

Tell her no  no  no  no  no-no-no-no
No  no  no  no  no-no-no-no
No no no no no
Don't hurt me now for her love belongs to me

And if she should tell you "I love you"
And if she tempts you with her charms

Tell her no  no  no  no  no-no-no-no
No  no  no  no  no-no-no-no
(don't take her love for your arms)
No no no no no
Don't hurt me now for her love belongs to me

I know she's the kind of girl
Who'd throw my love away
But I still love her so
Don't hurt me now, don't hurt me now

If she tells you "I love you"
Just remember she said that to me

Tell her no  no  no  no  no-no-no-no
No  no  no  no  no-no-no-no
(don't take her love from my arms)
No no no no no
Don't leave her now for her love belongs to me

Curiosidades

“Tell Her No” foi um dos primeiros sucessos dos Zombies, lançando‑se no final dos anos 60 junto com “She’s Not There” e “Time Of The Season”.

A canção destaca o piano rápido de Rod Argent e a voz melódica de Colin Blunstone, elementos que marcaram o som característico da banda.

Apesar de nunca ter atingido o nível de popularidade de outros grupos da Invasão Britânica, “Tell Her No” recebeu elogios da crítica por seus arranjos complexos e harmonias vocais.

O estilo sofisticado de “Tell Her No” ajudou a consolidar a reputação dos Zombies como favoritos entre críticos musicais da época.

A faixa contribuiu para a reputação do álbum “Odessey and Oracle” (1968) como um dos melhores registros da era, ainda que “Tell Her No” não conste nele.
