Lyrics

Chorus
I’ve been tempted and tested
I’ve been tried and found true to you
I’ve been tempted and tested
I’ve been tried and found true to you

Verse 1
You know all these long nights with Leesa
It’s about work; and there’s no play
Whispered words on the job say release her
They think the worst, but I can’t treat her that way

Chorus

Verse 2
You say you’ve been hurt by a phone call
But you won’t give me a name. No…no.
I know who told you, you were lucky to have me
Those weren’t my words, but it’s still me you blame

Chorus

Bridge
I can’t deny the way she feels…the way she looks at me.
But what she wants, I pledge to you I’ll make you see
It’s not so wrong that you feel this way, but let me say,
That’s something I won’t do…
Never hurt you…never hurt you…never hurt you…
