Lyrics

Baby Don’t Tell Me

Oh baby, don’t tell me
Don’t tell me it’s true
Oh baby, don’t tell me
Don’t tell me it’s you

Oh baby, don’t tell me
I heard the news
Oh baby, don’t tell me
Don’t tell me it’s true

The words on the street now
But I’m the last one to know
I heard your leaving
You found a new Romeo

Oh, baby you hurt me
And I feel so confused
I see you’ve been lying
Through your big baby blues

Oh baby, don’t tell me
Don’t tell me we’re through
Oh baby, don’t tell me
That you found someone new

Please baby don’t tell me
I don’t want to know
Oh baby, don’t tell me
Please don’t let me go

When you were out on the street girl
And you dint have a dime
Well I took you in girl
Now you’re doing just fine

I gave you my hand when
Nobody gave you the time
Seems you don’t even care now
What your leaving behind

Oh baby I’m sorry
I didn’t have a clue
You needed more love
And it was long overdue

Now you’re walking the street girl
Just like a real debutant
The way you’ve been acting
It’s a real work of art

I just can’t believe it
It wasn’t that long ago
You told me you loved me
Now I know …it just isn’t so

Oh baby, don’t tell me
Please don’t break my heart
Oh baby, don’t tell me
Don’t tear me apart

Oh baby, I love you
Yeh I really do
Please baby don’t tell me
Don’t tell me we’re through
