Don'T
Don't touch me
If you don't want to feel
Don't cast your charms
If the desire isn't real
Don't lead me to music
If it's just to hear the band
Don't make love to me
And later shake my hand
Don't talk to me
If you don't want to listen
Don't look in my eyes
You won't see the tears glisten
Don't tell me you love me
Then walk away
Don't take more from me
Than you can give in a day
Don't make me promise
If you are going to have a change in heart
Don't let the curtain fall
DON'T EVEN START!
