Lyrics
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh (oh, oh)
Yeah, yeah-ah, yeah
Yeah
Oh, stealing moments just to be with you, oh-oh
Though it's wrong, it's hard to tell the truth, oh no
She don't have to know (she don't have to know)
She don't have to know
When I meet you
I got my shades on to cover up my eyes (just to cover up my eyes)
I'm hoping that nobody sees me passing by through my disguise
I still know (I still know), you recognize
But you
I know you got a little secret of your own
(You should do, you know well)
Sneaking out with me while your man's at home
You know you're wrong
But it's so strong (so strong), still carrying on
I go (oh-oh-oh-oh)
To the other side of town, so I
Never risk the chance of catching her eye, oh, no
She don't have to know (she don't have to know)
She don't have to know (she don't have to know)
And, oh (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Girl, I know you're doing the same thing too
(I know you're doing, too)
But I won't tell your man the things we do (oh, no)
He don't have to know (he don't have to know)
He don't have to know (hey)
Someone's watching (oh-oh-oh)
We got to be careful next time, or we're through (qui, ah, qui)
Damn, it's so stressful doing the dirt we do
So sad, but true
And I know one day (one day)
I'm going to pay
Then you ask me (what would you say?)
To sneak out of town for just a day or three (one, two, three)
Go to DC and hold hands publicly
All through the streets
'Cause they don't know you (they don't know you)
And they don't know me (they don't know me)
And oh (oh-oh-oh-oh)
I feel sorry for mistakes we've made
(I feel sorry, baby, sorry, baby)
There's no reason that we should tell her today (oh, oh)
She don't have to know (she don't have to know)
She don't have to know (she don't have to know)
And, oh (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Though you give a lot of love to me (though you give a lot of love to me)
Girl, I know I'm not the only one you see (I'm not the only one you see)
But he don't have to know (he don't have to know)
He don't have to know (he don't have to know)
Oh, it's getting crazy (getting crazy)
I don't want to hurt my baby (I don't want to hurt)
And I know it's supposed to be the last time for you and I
But let's not end this way (so hard to go)
Wait another day (and I didn't know)
Oh (oh-oh-oh-oh)
I don't wanna let you go
So I just get let her know
She don't have to know, yeah
(Oh-oh-oh-oh) yeah
Oh, I know you're gonna say things too
Oh, oh-oh-oh
He don't, they don't have to know, yeah
Oh
