EVERYTHING BUT THE GIRL lyrics - Tears All Over Town

Don't be unkind, for once be untrue -

Can't pretend I care for her, only you

Just be on time, spare me your shame,

For once don't mention her name.

Now I cannot claim angel's wings,

But mention her name and I'll wreck everything



I saw things not meant for my eyes,

I was happy once and then twice.

I said things I shouldn't have said.

I told tales of days in your bed.

In love and war there's nothing sacred.



Just don't pretend, wherever you go,

There are things that only I know -

Because I'm sure, when she's there,

That you tell a few of the secrets of yours

That I had kept for you.



I saw things not meant for my eyes,

I was happy once and then twice.

I said things I shouldn't have said.

I told tales of days in your bed.

In love and war there's nothing sacred.
