I’d Rather Not Know
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Our once precious love was marred by separation
And the days set apart have bothered me so
You are my only love in all god's creation
And if you'd been untrue then i'd rather not know
I'd rather not know if you've been unfaithful
And tarnished the love that i treasured so
Any rival of mine is faceless and traceless
Let's keep it that way cause i'd rather not know
I've heard people say when a conscience is guilty
Cause sometimes through hell brings peace to your soul
But don't ever tell me what i don't know can't hurt me
Just confess in your prayers for i'd rather not know
