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 [bad word] the morning [bad word] 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 [bad word] you had in me is gone
Hurts me, little darling [bad word] the nightime [bad word] 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 [bad word] the morning [bad word] the night
