Asked that girl where she wanted to go
She said, 'I want to go away now'
Took her home where she wanted to be
She's gonna be with me tomorrow

Everyone needs to sleep
Everyone needs to dream to feel alive
Everyone takes a chance
Every time they open their eyes

They won't mind if you don't hurt them
They won't mind if you don't hurt them
They won't mind if you don't hurt them
You don't hurt them, no

Asked that girl what she wanted to be
She said, 'I want to be alone now'
Walked away when I wanted to stay
Now I'm getting what I paid for

Some people say I'll never make it
Man, I'm wasting my time
Some people say that I'm a winner
And I'm next in line

They won't mind if you don't hurt them
They won't mind if you don't hurt them
They won't mind if you don't hurt them
You don't hurt them, no

Every time you give them something
You get something in return
They won't mind if you don't hurt them
You don't hurt them, no

Every one needs to sleep
Everyone needs to dream to feel alive
Everyone takes a chance
Every time they open their eyes

They won't mind if you don't hurt them
They won't mind if you don't hurt them
They won't mind if you don't hurt them
You don't hurt them, no

Every time you give them something
You get something in return
Every time you try to please them
Realize that you don't need them

They won't mind
They won't mind
They won't mind
