He leaves her just for a week
He's off to live his dreams
Now he's in another town
He's never let her down
And she knows
Do you feel alright?
Or does it hurt inside?
Don't let her know
Don't let her know, yeah
He takes off in the night
No telephone in sight
Don't go
Now there's another man
And she don't give a damn
If he knows
Do you feel alright?
Or does it hurt inside?
Don't let her know
Don't let her know, yeah
All the love you've shown
Now you're all alone
Don't let her know
Don't let her know, yeah
Don't let her know, yeah
And now I think he understands
What it takes to be a man
Turn your back
Just turn your back
Do you feel alright?
Or does it hurt inside?
Don't let her know
Don't let her know, yeah
All the love you've shown
Now you're all alone
Don't let her know
Don't let her know, yeah
Do you feel alright?
Or does it hurt inside?
Don't let her know
Just let her go, yeah
