As far as everybody knows I've got a heart of stone
I might have bent but never broke, always been better on my own
I've been working hard to make it look like I'm okay
So don't give me away, yeah-ah

Don't let me down, don't sell me out, don't blow my cover
Yeah, you're the only one who knows that I still love her
You've got a secret to keep, I've got a memory to drown
Don't fall apart, yeah, come on, heart, don't tell on me now
Don't you tell on me now (don't you tell on me now)

You know my back's against the wall, got nowhere else to hide
I know you're hurtin' but I'm needin' you to pull me through tonight
One more time tell me what to say to make 'em think I'm fine
'Cause we both know that I'm runnin' out of lies

Don't let me down, don't sell me out, don't blow my cover
Yeah, you're the only one who knows that I still love her
You've got a secret to keep, I've got a memory to drown
Don't fall apart, yeah, come on, heart, don't tell on me now
Don't you tell on me now

I know you're torn in two
Tell me that I can count on you

Don't let me down, don't sell me out, don't blow my cover
Yeah, you're the only one who knows that I still love her
You've got a secret to keep, I've got a memory to drown
Don't fall apart, yeah, come on, heart, come on, heart

Don't let me down
Ooh-ooh, don't sell me out
You've got a secret to keep, I've got a memory to drown
Don't fall apart, yeah, come on, heart, don't tell on me now

(I know you're torn in two)
Don't you tell on me now
(Tell me that I can count on you)
I know you're torn in two
Tell me that I can count on you

Don't let me down
Don't sell me out
