[Verse 1]
You look at me like you always do
You don't have a clue
You smile at me, you hug me
But you don't know I want you
You play with me, you flirt with me
You tell me all your secrets
I'm always the one you run to
But to you I'm just your friend

[Chorus]
Don't say “I love you,”
Don't say you need me
Don't say “I trust you,”
My heart can't take it
Don't say you want me
Don't say you miss me
Don't hurt me
Don't say you love me
Ooh-ah, oh-oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]
I try my best to rid these thoughts
Of you and I, it's so hard
When you come to me, I fall back on my knees
I've learned to hate love
You kiss me on the cheek
You say you'd never make it without me
It's getting harder every day
Please don't say to me
[Chorus]
Don't say “I love you,” (Don't say)
Don't say you need me (Don’t say)
Don't say “I trust you,” (Don't say)
My heart can't take it (Don't say)
Don't say you want me (Don't say)
Don't say you miss me
Don't hurt me
Don't say you love me

[Bridge]
Don't say you love me
Don't say you love me
Don't say you love me
Don't say you love me
My heart can't take it
I love you so much
But you don't see me
I hate love

[Chorus]
Don't say “I love you,” (Don't say, don't say, don't say)
Don't say you need me (Don’t say, don't say, don't say)
Don't say “I trust you,” (Don't say, don't say, don't say)
Unless you mean it (Don't say)
Don't say you want me (Don't say, don't say, don't say)
Don't say you miss me (Don't say, don't say, don't say)
Don't hurt me (Don't say, don't say, don't)
Don't
Don't say “I love you,” (Don't say, don't say, don't say)
Don't say you need me (Don’t say, don't say, don't say)
Don't say “I trust you,” (Don't say, don't say, don't say)
Unless you mean it (Don't say)
Don't say you want me (Don't say, don't say, don't say)
Don't say you miss me (Don't say, don't say, don't say)
Don't hurt me (Don't say, don't say, don't)
Don't say you love me
