Didn't know a thing about it
But I know enough to know
If I was gonna be around it
It'd be too hard for me to take it slow
Well my heart started racing
And I took the place of your shadow
I went all in and that's when
I knew nothing else mattered
Ooh
Have mercy
Lord, have mercy on me
Ooh
Don't hurt me
Never been afraid of falling
But I never been so high before
I just wanna praise you, darlin'
For giving your love to me and so much more
You see me for the one that I am
When the others are blind
If you leave me, believe me
I still wouldn't treat you unkind
So I'm askin', baby
Ooh
Have mercy
Got me on my knees singing
Ooh
Don't hurt me
Don't you hurt me, baby
Ooh
Have mercy
Don't you hurt me, baby
Ooh
Don't hurt me
You see me for the one that I am
When the others are blind
If you leave me, believe me
I still wouldn't treat you unkind
So I'm askin', baby
Ooh
Have mercy
Lord, have mercy on me
Ooh
Don't hurt me
Gave you mercy, baby
Ooh
Have mercy
Don't you hurt me, baby
Ooh
Don't hurt me
