[Verse 1]
My voice is shaking, so are my hands
I know if I say it I can't take it back
I tell myself, "Girl, you gotta hold your tongue
"Yeah, you know they always run"
I don't wanna scare you off, too
[Chorus]
I'm damned if I don't
Damned if I do
Damn, they hurt worse when you know that they're true
So I won't say a thing
I know how this goes
I say it and mean it and what if you don't?
Damn it, I want to
But I've seen the damage three words can do
[Verse 2]
Don't give me those eyes, I'm in my head
Oh, I've had way too much red wine, you're in my bed
Oh, eight letter elephant in this room
I feel it and you feel it too
Baby, what am I supposed to do?
[Chorus]
I'm damned if I don't
Damned if I do
Damn, they hurt worsе when you know that they're truе
So I won't say a thing
I know how this goes
I say it and mean it and what if you don't?
Damn it, I want to
But I've seen the damage three words can do
[Bridge]
Oh, it starts with three words
Takes on goodbye
Heart breaks in two
Even though it feels right
[Chorus]
I'm damned if I don't
Damned if I do
Damn, they hurt worse when you don't say 'em too
I'm damned if I don't
Damned if I do
Damn they hurt worse when you know that they're true
I just shut down
I know how this goes
I say it and mean it and what if you don't?
Damn it, I want to
I think that I love you
