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.
Oh, stealing moments just to be with you
Though it's wrong, it's hard to tell the truth
Oh no, she don't have to know
She don't have to know
When I meet 'cha
I got my shades on to cover up my eyes
I'm hoping that nobody sees me passing by
Through my disguise
I still know you recognize
But you
I know you got a little secret of your own
Sneaking out with me while your man's at home
You know you're wrong
But it's so strong still carrying on
I go to the other side of town and so I
Never risk the chance will catching her eye
Oh no, she don't have to know
She don't have to know
Oh
Girl I know you're doing the same thing too
But I won't tell your man the things we do
Oh no, he don't have to know
He don't have to know
Someone's watching
We got to be careful next time or we're through
But damn it's so stressful doing the dirt we do
So sad but true
And I know one day
I'm gonna pay
Then he ask me
To sneak out of town for just a day or three
Go to DC and hold hands publicly
All through the streets
Cause they don't know you and they don't know me
And oh, I'll feel sorry for mistakes we've made
There's no reason that we should tell her today
She don't have to know
She don't have to know
Girl, oh
Though you give a lot of love to me
Girl I know I'm not the only one you see
But he don't have to know
He don't have to know
Oh, it's getting crazy
And I don't want to hurt my baby
And I know it's supposed to be the last time for you and I
But let's not end this way
Just wait another day.
Oh, I don't want to let you go and I
So I just can't let her go
She don't have to know
Yeah, Yeah
Oh, I know you're doin' the same thing to her
Oh, he don't, they don't have to know
