Please Don't Tell Her

I always leave her waiting
I always leave her down
If she should come my way
I always turn around

But please don't tell her I love her
Please don't tell her I love her

I always keep her out
I never let her in
If she should come my way weeping
I greet her with a grin

And I say please don't tell her I love her
Please don't tell her I love her

If she should discover colors of my love
Then she will fly, fly away

Now you can try tenderness
Or you can try to hang around
Oh, but I'm sure she'll love you less
I'm sure she'll bring you down

But please don't tell her I love her
Please don't tell her I love her
Please don't tell her I love her
But please don't tell her I love her

But please don't tell her I love her
Please don't tell her I love her
