Lyrics Don’t Tell Her I’m Not - Steve Wariner

It's just me and the streetlights
A half a mile from home
There's a woman waitin there that i love so much
I can't stand bein gone
And i've been afraid
More times than i can count
That i'll mess up and do a stupid thing
And somehow let her down
Cause she loves me
And i don't know why she does
But she loves me
Lord i hope that i'm enough
Don't let her see me
As any less of a man
Than the one she thinks
I am
And don't let her find out
That i'm really not so strong
I'm tryin to love her with all i've got
She thinks i'm a hero
Don't tell her i'm not
Yeah i said some things
I wish i'd never said
Now i'm drivin around
Thinkin out loud tryin to
Get it off my chest
I couldn't stand to see those tears fallin down her pretty face
And knowin it's because of me
Makes me feel so ashamed
She loves me
Oh and i can't figure out
Why she loves me
What's she thinkin of me now
Don't let her see me
As any less of a man
Than the one she thinks
I am
And don't let her find out
That i'm really not so strong
I'm tryin to love her with all i've got
She thinks i'm a hero
Don't tell her i'm not
Don't let her see me
As any less of a man
Than the one she thinks
I am
Don't let her find out
I'm really not that strong
I'm tryin to love her
With all i've got
She thinks i'm a hero
Don't tell her i'm not
Don't tell her i'm not
