lyrics
Caught Red Handed – written by Jacob William
Verse:
Don’t want to know his name
Don’t want to know where you go
Don’t want to know if you love him
Tell me it ain’t so
Don’t want to know how many times
Don’t want to know how many lies
Don’t want to know if you love him
If I missed the tell-tale signs
Pre-chorus:
Don’t want to know where he’s from
You don’t know what you’ve done
One day you will see
He ain’t half of me
Chorus:
Put it in a letter - all the things you feel
Put it down on paper
Then before you seal
You can take my heart
Find the nearest match
And send it up in flames
Just never speak my name
Verse:
Being caught red handed
I guess you didn’t see
I know that love was foolish
But you made a fool of me
Pre-Chorus:
It’s not that I don’t care
You know I’m going to miss you
I’d rather be dead to you
So never speak my name
Chorus:
Put it in a letter - all the things you feel
Put it down on paper
Then before you seal
You can take my heart
Find the nearest match
And send it up in flames
Just never speak my name
Bridge:
No need to call
I’ve got your number
No need to call
Put it in a letter
I can’t look back
I’ve had enough
Chorus:
Put it in a letter - all the things you feel
Put it down on paper
Then before you seal
You can take my heart
Find the nearest match
And send it up in flames
Just never speak my name
Never speak my name - again
