Don't   |   Play  Lyrics Don’t (T. Murphy / Pam Reswick) Don’t touch me with your hands Don’t make me need a man No warm and tender smiles That make me ache inside Don’t stand so close to me That I feel your body heat Don’t stare so constantly Like you’re undressing me You think you’re going to steal my heart Well you’re wrong Before you even try to start I’ll be gone You think you’re gonna make me love you Well you won’t So if that’s what you’re gonna do Just don’t Don’t whisper in my ear Cause I don’t want to hear Don’t call me on the phone Cause I’d rather be alone Don’t tear down my walls Don’t they just might fall Please don’t make me feel Something so painfully real You think you’re gonna change my mind With some fairytale Well better men then you have tried And failed You swear my dreams will all come true But I know they won’t So if that’s what you’re gonna do Just don’t Don’t waste your time Don’t waste it on me

Saying the words "don't" yet secretly longing to invite intimacy into your life. i.e. No means yes :) Story Behind the Song: Pam and I wrote this with very little conscious effort. It all just kind of poured out painlessly and emotionally. It's a very relatable experience to be afraid of love and being hurt so it wasn't hard to capture that in a gut wrenching, soul song.
