Whoa, whoa, that's my word
That's my word, that's my word
Whoa, whoa, that's my word
That's my word, that's my word
Let me apologize for his mistakes
The way he treated you was never how it should be
I came to offer you a change of pace
You won't regret it if you trust me
Take my love, don't refuse it
Give your heart, I won't abuse it
We can start as slow as you like
Here's a fresh start to a brand new life
Baby, I won't let him hurt you
Let him hurt you again
And you know he didn't deserve you
You was too good for him
But a broken heart can mend and crying eyes can dry
And hurt can turn to joy, just takes a little time
Baby, I won't let him hurt you
That's my word, that's my word, that's my word
And I know you've had your share of trials
It's left you with some doubts, I understand it completely
Did you know that I been through it too?
That's not to say that you won't have to work to believe me
Take my hand, that's the first step
Yes, you can, just let me help
'Cause baby, the plan is to dry your tears

And tear down every wall of fear
Baby, I won't let him hurt you
Won't let him hurt you again
And you know he didn't deserve you
You was too good for him, oh
But a broken heart can mend and crying eyes can dry
And hurt can turn to joy, just takes a little time
Baby, I won't let him hurt you
That's my word, that's my word, that's my word
Darling, one thing that I'll assure
You won't have to cry no more
Now I'm a man and I made mistakes
But your heart I will never break
Baby, keep your guard, it's alright
'Cause that will all come down in time
I'll be your humility, my love is stronger than pride
And I'll be your truth in a world full of lies
Baby, I won't let him hurt you
Won't let him hurt you again, oh, no
And you know he didn't deserve you
You was too good for him
But a broken heart can mend and crying eyes can dry
And hurt can turn to joy, just takes a little time
Baby, I won't let him hurt you
That's my word, that's my word, that's my word
