I Don't Want To Know You That Well
Here we are in a half dark room
Lit by neon sign
A couple of drinks and a long slow dance
Has brought us to this frame of mind
You want to ask me about myself
There's not that much I'd like to tell
And as for you to tell the truth
I don't want to know you that well
I don't want to know where you've been
Or where you think you'll go
I only know what I want
And that's all I want to know
I've been in love once before
And I'm just beginning to heal
You look like you'd be so easy to love
But I don't want to know you that well
So take my body
Leave my heart alone
You would long be any way
Most of it is gone
I need to keep what little's left
I won't go through another hell
And knowing you would be taking chances
That I don't want to know you that well
You look like you'd be so easy to love
But I don't want to know you that well
Lit by neon sign
A couple of drinks and a long slow dance
Has brought us to this frame of mind
You want to ask me about myself
There's not that much I'd like to tell
And as for you to tell the truth
I don't want to know you that well
I don't want to know where you've been
Or where you think you'll go
I only know what I want
And that's all I want to know
I've been in love once before
And I'm just beginning to heal
You look like you'd be so easy to love
But I don't want to know you that well
So take my body
Leave my heart alone
You would long be any way
Most of it is gone
I need to keep what little's left
I won't go through another hell
And knowing you would be taking chances
That I don't want to know you that well
You look like you'd be so easy to love
But I don't want to know you that well
