Private Pain

I don't want to bear witness to your private
pain
I don't want to be there if your tears fall like
rain
I don't want to see you when anything's
wrong
I only want a love that flows quietly along
I don't care if you think that you might be
sick
I don't need to know what you think makes
you tick
I don't care to hear what you're really like
inside
I won't get tangled up in your emotional
tide
Don't ask me any questions about my
private past
I only want love not something that will
last
Don't tell me you need me with tears in
your eyes
Don't ask me any questions I won't tell you
any lies
