VERSE 1]

I didn't want to have to say this to you

It's not that I don't love you

I just can't be explaining to everyone why you hurt me

That's why I want to keep us between you and me

You'd understand if you were treated like me

It's not that people run me

But they can see when I am hurtin'

They know it's not me

So don't make me the blame

You need to change

[B-SECTION]

You say later, you're not ready

To make a commitment to me

It will take some time

Should've known before we started

You act one way when you are around me

When we are in public you are so different

I know that you treat me bad

But I can't get away

Let's just keep it undercover

I don’t wanna be embarrassed so

[CHORUS (two times)]

I don't want anybody to know

Didn't we decide that

We don't want anybody to know

What we do when we're alone

We don't want anybody to know

[VERSE 2]

I know that people would never understand me

'Cause they can only judge whatever they see

And I know what they'll say if they look at me

If I had all the answers to what they would ask

Still they wouldn't realize the love that we have

So now I have to deal with living secretly

'Cause to me love is worthless with no you and me

And it should be clear how I ride for you but

[B-SECTION]

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]

Tell me if I've made it clear to you

If you can't understand this then maybe we need

To give up on each other until you believe

Everything we go through is all because of you

And you don’t have to do the things that you do

'Cause I've been the same since we began

So bay, will you make a chance?

[CHORUS out]
