Don't Ever Tell Me That You Love Me

(album: Huey Lewis & The News - 1980)

I met her, down at the store on the corner
She was a prettier girl that was ever in a magazine
She was an angel, all dressed up like the devil
I knew I'd never forgive myself unless I asked her out this eve

So I asked to the movies and she put her arms around me
Right at the start of the show
The she kissed me on the ear and she whispered real low

She said, don't ever tell me that you love me
Just don't say those three words
To me so I don't ever have to be true.
She said, don't ever tell me that you need me
Just don't say those three words to me so I don't have to worry

Can you imagine how it hit me
And the funny thing is that it was just occurring to myself
So I said, hey don't jump to conclusions
Just what makes you so sure that I could ever fall for you myself

But even as I said it,
I knew I never meant it
I could feel cupids arrow from above
By the end of the movie I was falling in love

She said, don't ever tell me that you love me
Just don't say those three words to me so I don't ever have to be true.
She said, don't ever tell me that you need me
Just don't say those three words to me so I don't have to worry about you

Don't ever tell me that you love me
just don't say those three words to me so I don't have to worry about you

Just don't say those three words to me so I don't have to worry about you
