DON'T DO THAT TO ME

 

Yeah I know that you mean well

Every time you call and ask me, how I’m doing

I do appreciate it

 

I sure like when you drop by

To check on me from time to time

But the truth is, I wish you wouldn’t baby

'cause I haven’t found a way to leave you behind

And I know that you think that you’re just being kind

 

Baby don’t do that to me

Don’t you tempt me with that smile

Give this fragile heart some space, and let it ache for just a while

Don’t want the pity in your eyes, that’s the last thing that I need

'cause the sweeter that you are, the more it tears me apart

Baby don’t do that to me

 

Our friends know not to say your name

They tip toe all around my pain like an army, ‘round a fallen soldier

Everything you do for me, is just one more excuse to keep believing

Maybe it’s not over

Don’t come knocking at my door 'cause I’ll let you in

And that would only give me hope again

 

Baby don’t do that to me

Don’t you tempt me with that smile

Give this fragile heart some space, and let it ache for just a while

Don’t want the pity in your eyes, that’s the last thing that I need

'cause the sweeter that you are, the more it tears me apart

Baby don’t do that to me

 

I’ve got these feelings you can’t help me fight

You can’t make it any easier, so don’t you even try

Baby don’t do that to me

 

Don’t want the pity in your eyes, that’s the last thing that I need

'cause the sweeter that you are, its already way too hard,

And it just tears me apart

Baby don’t do that to me

Don’t do that to me
