Believe me when I tell you

I will try to understand

Belive me when I tell you

I could never kill a man



But to know that another man's holding you tight

Hurts me, little darling

Thru the morning thru the night



The bond has been broken

The promise you gave

The words that were spoken

I can not be your slave



But to know that the trust you had in me is gone

Hurts me, little darling

Thru the nightime thru the dawn



I dreamed just last night you were there by my side

Your sweet loving tenderness

Easing my pride



But then I awoke and found you not there

It was just my old memory of how much I care



Belive me when I tell you

I will try to understand

Belive me when I tell you

I could never kill a man



But to know that another man's holding you tight

Hurts me little, darling

Thru the morning thru the night
