She Don't Have To Know Lyrics

Oh, stealing moments just to be with you
Though it's wrong, it's hard to tell the truth, oh no
She don't have to know, she don't have to know

When I meet you
I've got my shades on to cover up my eyes
Hoping that nobody sees me passing by
Through my disguise
I still know you'll recognize

But you...
I know you've got a little secret of your own
Sneaking out with me while your man's at home
You know it's wrong
But it's so strong, still carrying on

I go to the other side of town so I
Never risk the chance we'll catch her eye, oh no
She don't have to know, she don't have to know

And, oh, girl I know you're doing the same thing too
But I won't tell your man the things we do, oh no
He don't have to know, he don't have to know

Someone's watching
We gotta be careful next time or we're through
Damn, it's so stressful doing the dirt we do
So sad but true
And I know one day, i'm gonna pay

Then you ask me
To sneak outta town for just a day or three
Go to D.C. and hold hands publicly
All through the streets
Cause they don't know you, and they don't know me

Oh, I feel sorry for mistakes we've made
But there's no reason that we should tell her today
She don't have to know, she don't have to know

And, oh, though you give a lot of love to me
Girl, I know i'm not the only one you see
But he don't have to know, he don't have to know

Oh, it's getting crazy
And I don't wanna hurt my baby
And I know it's supposed to be the last time for you and I
But let's not end this way
Let's wait another day

This song is pretty self-explanatory, to me. They are having an affair, they know it's wrong but they still continue to do so. hahaha this is my favorite song on the album right now hahaha, for the most obvious reasons. Who would have thought I would ever be a part of an affair (well, its not an affair, cuz so far its only been a one time thing but still)? I feel bad for his gf, but at the time I wasn't too worried about it. The only bad thing is: now I think I like him A LOT less. I think the fact that he cheated on his girlfriend, and he doesn't seem to care about it kind of bothers me. It's like he doesn't feel bad at all and I think that makes him an asshole. well well well. now what?

obviously he doesnt want to hurt his original girlfriend and at the same time end his relationship with the other one because of so far what they had together. made it hard to choose so he wishes it could go on without having anyone to know.

sometimes people like songs at a certain times because they can relate to it. its a natural thing for a person to be fond of something they can connect with.
