They say it's better to love And lose than to never love at all As she cries in my arms I wonder How on earth to break the fall Is it better not to know Is it better not to know I heard the whispers and always thought It's really not my place I couldn't have imagined All this sadness on her face Is it better not to know Is it better not to know Sadness makes you live and relive How it all went wrong Drown your darkest fears with tears We can't always be strong Is it better not to know Is it better not to know
