Please Don't Tell Her lyrics

I always leave her waiting
I always leave her down
If she should come my way
I always turn around,
Please don't tell her I love her.
I always keep her out
I never let her in
If she should come my way weeping
I greet her with a gin
Please don't tell her I love her.
If she should discover the colors of my love,
She will fly, fly away
Now you can try tenderness,
You can try to hang around,
Oh, but I'm sure she'll love you less,
I'm sure she'll bring you down.
Please don't tell her I love her
