(Wiley J. Smith)

It's not a knowledge everybody knows I love you

We're cheatin' though we wear another's name

Every night I swear tomorrow I'll forget you Lord I can't

So I'll keep hurtin' till the pain outwears the shame

So I'll be back in your arms again tomorrow

We've led us part a stolen love become a burning flame

Well I'm begging you to go but when I do I know

I'll be hurtin' till the pain outwears the shame

[ steel ]

Tonight I love you for the last time then I'll say goodbye

But down inside I know it's all in vain

Before I'll leave the hurt's already starting I can't go

I think it's over till the pain outwears the shame

So I'll be back in your arms...
