What She Don't Know Won't Hurt Her

My woman thinks I wouldn't cheat on her when we're apart
But there's a secret hidden in the shadows of my heart
The truth is catching up with me and it's hard to hide my shame
What she don't know won't hurt her but it's drivin' me insane

My mind can't take my body runnin' 'round anymore
That guilty feelin's waitin' for me right outside my door
So let's just call it off tonight and let my conscience be
What she don't know won't hurt her but it's destroyin' me

It bothers me every time I hear the doorbell ring
That someone might be droppin' by to tell her everything
I stay upset 'cause I don't know if anybody sees
What she don't know won't hurt her but it's destroyin' me

My mind can't take my body runnin' 'round anymore
That guilty feelin's waitin' for me right outside my door
So let's just call it off tonight and let my conscience be
What she don't know won't hurt her but it's destroyin' me
What she don't know won't hurt her but, Lord, it's killin' me
