Story Behind The Song

Many songs have been written by someone who has had a loved one cheat on him/her. I thought it would be a fun twist to write a song in the opposite point of view. Since the vocals are sung by a female, the song emulates a certain feel of "girl power."

Song Description

The verse starts out with saying that the singer treated her man well. Then she started to change, and began to cheat on him. The chorus is proud and shameless, saying that what he doesn't know won't hurt him. The next verses explain that she focused on her pleasurable feelings, and didn't try to understand how much damage could be done. The verses end with saying she is sorry for the hurt she has caused, and gives a half-promise that she will behave better in the future. The song still ends with the sly and shameless chorus.

Lyrics

I used to love you
I loved you real good
I'd make you feel
The way that you should
I'd make you breakfast
I'd sweeten your tea
But then something started
changing me

I played you baby
Well call me crazy
I wasn't thinking
'Bout the pain I was causing
I had my cake and I was
Eating it too
My life was perfect and
Nobody knew

Chorus
What you don't know won't hurt you baby
What you don't know won't hurt you baby
If you don't know it won't drive you crazy
What you don't know won't hurt you baby

When I'd see you
I'd start to sweat
I kept wondering had you
Found out yet
I was so clever
I invented the game
The lustful feelings
Just overpowered the shame

Chorus

Don't know what I was thinking
I'll blame it on the drinking
I struggled through a difficult childhood
I know this won't concern you
But when I love someone new
I swear that I always be good

Chorus
