Don't Tell Me About It

You tell me that you love him
But he hurt you
So once again you're here for me to hold
And as I listen to your latest heartbreak
I know that I can't take it anymore

Don't tell me about it
It hurts too much to hear
To you I've just been someone
You could turn to
Don't tell me about it
You've come here just to cry
Pretending not to notice that I love you

You cling to me
To try to ease what's hurting
And take from me what he refused to give
You give to him
The things I only dream of
Expecting me to stand by while you live

Tell me that you love me
Or you can tell me that you care
You don't really need me
You just want me to be there
