Don’t Look Too Closely – Oleta Adams

Don’t look too closely
Or you will see
All of my secrets
Coming out of me
I try to hide
The way I feel
But the storm inside me
Is too much to conceal
Don’t ask, if you really don’t want to know
Don’t say you will, if your heart keeps saying you won’t
Don’t try, if you really don’t want to go
All the way, to the end of the road

Don’t be too anxious
To probe my mind
You don’t know
What you’re likely to find
‘Cause you might get caught
In my spiders web
And I might decide
To keep you there
For ever, never
Don’t ask, if you really don’t want to know
Don’t say you will, if your heart keeps saying you won’t
Don’t try, if you really don’t want to go
All the way, to the end of the road

Don’t look too closely
Or you will see
Part of my secrets
Coming out in me
Don’t you dare ooh
Look too deeply
Inside my mind
‘Cause you might find out
I need to be left to lie

Don’t look too closely…
