  • No is not an answer
    One that I might try to understand you see
    Love is only letters
    Until you prove your love is here inside for me
    Can you feel it(feel it) or can't you see (can't you see?)
    I'll never love someone as much I know
    When you see me (see me), it's what you'll get (what you'll get)
    Until I know it's real it won't change how I feel

    What you don't know might hurt you
    What you don't know (don't know, don't know)
    If you don't know, it won't hurt you
    What you don't know
    What you don't know might hurt you

    You, you play with fire
    I know one day, you're gonna be the one to burn
    Love is like a game
    What goes around, comes around, you wait your turn

    It's a feeling (feeling) to change with time (change with time)
    We'll always be together, wait and see
    If you know me (know me), that's what you'll get (what you'll get)
    Until I know it's real, it won't change how I feel

    What you don't know might hurt you
    What you don't know
    If you don't know, it won't hurt you
    What you don't know

    What you don't know might hurt you
    What you don't know, (don't know) might hurt you
    What you don't know (don't know)
    If you don't know, it won't hurt you
    What you don't know (don't know)
    What you don't know might hurt you

    What you don't know no never know
    What you don't know no never know
    What you don't know no never know
    What you don't know no never know

    What you don't know might hurt you
    What you don't know
    What you don't know, it won't hurt you
    What you don't know (don't know)
    What you don't know might hurt you

    What you don't know might hurt you
    What you don't know
    If you don't know, it won't hurt you
    What you don't know (won't hurt you baby)
    What you don't know might hurt you

    So, baby, what you don't know won't hurt you now
    I don't wanna hurt you, baby, no
    I don't wanna hurt you, baby, no
    I don't wanna hurt you, baby, no no no
    And if you don't know, you won't let go
    What you don't know

    Na na na na, whoa whoa, na na na
    Na na na na, whoa whoa, na na na
    Na na na na, whoa whoa, na na na
    What you don't know might hurt you
    Na na na na, whoa whoa, na na na Writer/s: Lewis A Martinee Martinee
