I could call your mother to tell her the truth She could give the message to you I could write a letter or give you a note, But I won't, I won't. Because you're better off To never know My alibi Which is loving you so I never cheated or looked astray Don't know who spread that fire But I think that you know deep down inside You are my hearts desire Because you're better off To never know My alibi Which is loving you so I hold you back when I hold your hand You're better off when you're your own man Baby, take your last look Don't say goodbye Love don't mean that much anyway Don't give me a hard time if I close my eyes I'm okay I'm okay I could write a letter or give you a note, But I won't, I won't.
