Story Behind the Song
This song was inspired by a poem written by Ryan Lewis. The words just struck me as being great song lyrics, so with his permission, I added to it and set it to music.
Lyrics
Don't
Don't tell me you love me,
Then go and leave me blue.
Don't say I mean the world,
Unless I really do.
Don't try and cover up things,
To make my life a dream,
And if you do not want me,
Don't say things you don't mean.
Chorus
Don't make me feel your loving arms,
Then go and push me away,
Don't talk about forever,
Unless you plan to stay.
Don't tell me that you'll be my girl,
And that I'll be your king.
And if you do not love me,
Don't say things you don't mean.
Don't fill my heart with love,
Show me sun during the rain,
Don't show me what heaven's like,
Then leave me trembling in pain.
Don't hold me through the night,
And promise another day,
Then walk out of my world,
Saying it'll be ok.
Chorus
