Don'T Tell Me

Don’t tell me you love me You can’t. You don’t even know me. You don’t know the secrets I keep inside The tears I try to hide The desires for something different, something real Or the way I really want to feel I’m scared to tell you these things Scared to share my feelings Because you haven’t understood them Why should I try again? So don’t tell me that you love me Unless you are willing to know who I am The real me…. Don’t tell me you love me Tell me that you want to That would be true But don’t tell me that you do Because I don’t know right now if I want to love you But the truth is, I do I do, I do love you
