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, I hold your hand
You're better off when your'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
