No is not an answer
One that I might try to understand you see
Love is only letters
Until you prove your love is here inside for me
Can you feel it? [Feel it]
Or can't you see? [Can't you see?]
I'll never hurt someone as much I know
When you see me [see me]
It's what you'll get [what you get]
Until I know it's real it won't change how I feel
[What you don't know]
[Might hurt you]
[What you don't know]
Don't know, don't know
[If you don't know]
If you don't know
It won't hurt you
[What you don't know]
Don't know
What you don't know might hurt you, ooo ooo ooo
You [You]
You play with fire
I know one day you're gonna be the one to burn
Love [Love]
Is like a game haaa
What goes around comes around you wait your turn
It's a feelin' [feelin']
To change with time [change with time]
We'll always be together wait and see
If you know me [know me]
That's what you'll get [what you'll get]
Until I know it's real it won't change how I feel
[What you don't know]
[Might hurt you]
[What you don't know]
Don't know, don't know
[If you don't know]
If you don't know
It won't hurt you
What you don't know
Don't know
What you don't know
Might hurt you
[What you don't know]
Don't know

If you don't know

[What you don't know]

What you don't know might hurt you
