If You Really Cared

Thought I understood

All the things that you told me

You were going through

Tried to be there

And wanted to pull you through

And show you how much you're loved

Made a song and dance

Whenever I would ask you

Just what was wrong

You would say something

Like, "Nothing, hon"

All along telling me a lie

If you really cared

Cared about me

Then you would care about

Care about us

If you cared about me, yeah

You would have cared about love

Felt betrayed

I was giving good loving

Yet, still you strayed

Wasn't I good enough

You were, oh, so sweet

I guess it was your sweetness

That blinded me

If you really cared

Cared about me

Then you would care about

Care about us

If you cared about me, yeah

You would have cared about love

If you cared

You would be there for me

You wouldn't have left me feeling lonely

If you really cared

Then you would have cared about us

Cared about love

Said you cared

Now you're asking for forgiveness

It's much too late

I don't want you near

If you cared about me

Then you would have cared about love

If you really cared

Cared about me

Then you wouldn't have

Hurt me as you did

If you cared about me

Then you would have cared about love

If you really cared

Cared about me

Then you wouldn't have

Hurt me as you did

If you cared about me

Then you would have cared about love

When you really cared

Cared about me

Then you wouldn't have

Hurt me as you did

If you cared about me

Then you would have cared about love
