Things I Never Let You Know

Country fair, sweet seventeen There you were, and everything Faded from my view except The boy who had me won I said I liked those teddy bears Up on that shelf, and right there You gave the man a dollar, Asked if I'd ever shot a gun And I said "no" so that you'd have to show me And hold me close Things I never let you know September, eighteen years old We left innocence at the one way door And I put on a smile As I watched you leave for work But after I was all alone I cried as hard as I'd ever done Because it was bittersweet And I was both in love and somehow hurt But I told you that I was ok when You came back home Things I never let you know There were times I could've told you, Little moments that I wish I had; You should know I'd do anything for you, Break any kind of bad Twenty-one and out school And I was breaking our one rule Through thick and thin, forever, We said, it was meant to be The pain on your face was too much When I said I'd fallen out of love It was the only way you wouldn't Give up your dream for me It took everything I had to keep the tears From falling slow Things I never let you know Things I never let you know
