Spare Me the Details

I have no fear of all I don’t know
What a man cannot see will not hurt
But lately the way you’ve been sneaking around’s got my mind
Laying down in the dirt

And I don’t need to know
The where or the whom
It’s going to kill me just to know that you lied
So darling, spare me the details
That’s where the devil resides

I’ve never been, oh the jealous kind
No flash of green in these eyes
So I don’t want to drag these suspicions around
Or the fear of some ugly surprise

And I want to believe
Every word that you say
And Lord only knows how I’ve tried
So darling, spare me the details
That’s where the devil resides

And envy may well be the deadlier sin but it
Aint so dishonest as pride

I’ve always been
A creature of faith
I have stood up and taken my vow
So what then, would all of these years have been for
If I start in to question it now?

So I don’t want to deal in the wrong and the right
Cos I’ve already chosen my side
And darling, spare me the details
That’s where the devil resides
