It's getting late I've got to hurry and get out of here
I told that girl I'd meet with at six and six is near
I called my wife to let her know my work is piled up high
But what she doesn't know won't hurt her tonight
She thinks I'm still at my job working late again
She won't guess I'm at some cheap motel with her best friend
Just because she doesn't know won't make it so right
But what she doesn't know won't hurt her tonight
Middle -4 bars-
When I get home I know my wife will be in bed asleep
And when I look at her the feelings will run deep
I tell myself this is the last time but it's all a lie
Cause what she doesn't know won't hurt her tonight
She thinks I'm still at my job working late again
She won't guess I'm at some cheap motel with her best friend
Just because she doesn't know won't make it so right
But what she doesn't know won't hurt her tonight
