You Don'T Know How Bad It Hurts

You don't know how bad it hurts.

When you keep talking about that.

Do you really know me? Like you say you know know me?

Then if you do, don't do it.

If you know how bad it hurts then don't do it.

You love me? Then stay home don't go.

Don't do it for you may lose me.

I love you, care for you and feel for you.

But I guess you will never know if you go.

You just don't know how bad it hurts.

I guess you will never know.

Too often what we know is what we are told, don't let them guess, tell them - you got the words! Love always
