They say what you don't know will never hurt you

What you don't see won't ever bother you at all

So if you see my sweetheart with another

Don't tell me you just make the teardrops fall

Let me go on thinking I'm the lucky one

And deep within her heart she loves me so

If there are unfaithful things that she has done

Please don't tell me I don't want to know



You may think you're doing me a favor

By telling me the things that you have seen

But you're just lighting fuses of destruction

You are just destroying my dreams

Of every reason to believe she's kind and true

And in my heart I think she loves me so

I'd be broken hearted if I heard from you

All the things that I don't want to know

Let me go on thinking I'm the lucky one

And deep within her heart she loves me so

I'd be broken hearted if I heard from you

All the things that I don't want to know
