Relationships are hard, jealousy is always there. Questions are always asked, do they love me? Do they like them more than me? I found adjusting my outlook from being single to being married a minefield. I have now seen others go through it, some adjust, some don’t.

Verse One
I don’t want to hurt you, don’t want to see you cry.
I don’t want to hurt you, I would rather die.
Girl you’re everything that I ever want.
I don’t want to hurt you, its just the way I am.

Verse Two
I don’t want to hurt you, it isn’t what I want.
I always seem to hurt you, just when I’m having fun.
You see me looking at girls shaking what they’ve got..
For sure they’ve got everything, but its you I want.

Chorus
Don’t you cry my pretty thing,
these maybe lies but the truth may lie within.
Now don’t be sad, just kiss me quick
and I’ll come back, your ever trouble loving man.

Verse Three
Its you who brings the sunshine to sweeten up my day.
I tell you you’re my sweetheart, you smile, but look away.
Girl you’re everything that I ever want.
I don’t want to hurt you, it isn’t what I want.

Mid
If I could change I would change for you honey.
I would do it for you.
But I can’t change, I ain’t a saint pretty darling.
Guess I’m in trouble, I guess I’m in trouble with you.

Verse Four
I don’t want to hurt you, its just the way I am.
I don’t want to lose you, darling don’t you understand.
You see me looking at girls shaking what they’ve got..
For sure they’ve got everything, but its you I want.

Chorus (extended)
Don’t you cry my pretty thing,
these maybe lies but the truth may lie within.
Now don’t be sad, just kiss me quick
and I’ll come back, your ever trouble loving man.
Love should be fun or it just tires.
Without fun, well what we got will surely die.
Take me now, take me quick.
I want to melt in your tender loving arms.
