Funny Kind of Sad

Have you ever been too shy to confess your feelings for somebody else? "Don't tell me if it hurts" captures this struggle. 
I was randomly paired with singer-songwriter Nate Gerry, who wrote the lyrics and looked for somebody to compose a song. When sent me his lyrics, I had absolutely no clue about style, phrasing and harmonics - I did not even know what kind of music he enjoys! Right after reading his story, I was inspired to compose a hell of a pop rock ballad. After sending him a rough demo, we decided to turn it into a full band production. I am lucky, that I AM MEADOWS lend his vocals, guitars and bass to make this song come to life. Thank you both for turning a little idea into a big song! 

This song is part of my album "Going My Way" which can be downloaded at Bandcamp.

==== LYRICS ====

Should I tell you how I feel? 
Or keep this fantasy going? 
Should I believe we're in love
Live in the never knowing? 

Does your heart skip a beat 
Do you think of someone else? 
Am I too young to be your man
Too soon for wedding bells? 

Don't tell me if it hurts 
Don't tell me if it's true 
Don't tell me anything unless you love me 

If it hurts 
Don't tell me if it's true 
Don't tell me anything unless you want it too 

I crave the smile on your lips 
When I am cracking a joke 
I love you looking at my way 
Even when you won't no 

I feel that giggle in my chest 
When words caught up in my throat 
I think you see me as a friend 
I pray to God that you don't 

Don't tell me if it hurts 
Don't tell me if it's true 
Don't tell me anything unless you love me 

If it hurts 
Don't tell me if it's true 
Don't tell me anything unless you want it too 

I'm under a spell I cast upon myself 
I want flesh and blood, no imagination
The only way to escape
Is to risk it all

Don't tell me if it hurts 
Don't tell me if it's true 
Don't tell me anything unless you love me 

If it hurts 
Don't tell me if it's true 
Don't tell me anything unless you want it too 

Don't tell me if it hurts
No no, no no
Don't tell me if it hurts
No no, no no no

Going My Way

Don't tell me if it hurts

Don't tell me if it hurts (feat. I AM MEADOWS)
