If I Really Cared For You
I'm not that one to tell you,
Someone else you love...
Doesn't care.
I'm not that one to tell you,
Someone else you love...
Isn't there to care for you,
Like I do.
Because....
Who you see back then,
I never was.
This is the me,
You haven't seen.
I'm not that one to tell you,
Someone else you love...
Isn't there to care for you,
Like I do.
Because...
I was always hiding just to see,
If you...
Cared for me.
I'm not that one to tell you,
Someone else you love...
Doesn't care.
Because...
If I really cared for you,
You'd know it too!
And you wouldn't...
Be there!

Reflections (Care Enough)
Reflections of your love
Have come to wither
I thought I'd done my best to memorize
A picture fades of you and I together
I haven't come to terms
With how we said goodbye
Did you really care
Care for me at all
Did you really care
Did you care for me at all
A displaced little girl
Wept years in silence
And whispered wishes you'd materialize
She pressed on night and day
To keep on living
And tried to many ways
To keep her soul alive
Did you really care
Care enough for me
Did you really care
Did you care at all for me
If I'm not quite good enough
Or somehow undeserving of
A mother's love
You could have had the decency
To give me up
Before you gave me life
Don't you even care
Just the slightest bit for me
Cause I really need to feel you cared
Even once upon a time for me
I need to believe

You're My Love
You wanna know if I care for you
You ought to know by now
How can you stand there just pretending
And you know how I feel.
'Cause baby, you're my love
And I love everything you do to me
You're my love
And I love when you're around
You're my love
And I've never let you down.
You wanna know what I see you
I can really say it for sure
All I know is I need you
More than I've ever needed
Anyone else before.
'Cause baby, you're my love
And I love everything you do to me
You're my love
And I love when you're around
You're my love
And I've never let you down.
Seasons changing faster than they do
And we'll be gone
It's funny but we didn't seem to care
The only thing we cared about
Was keeping you out, our strong
As long as you're there
I'll always care...

Why are butterflies free?
A butterfly goes thru one of lives greatest metamorphoses.
It starts its life as a caterpillar going thru life eating and waiting for that moment to begging its life’s journey. It cocoons itself until it is ready for its last steps in life.
Spring forth from its cocoon, it frees itself and flies off into the light. It is its begging and ending all at the same time.
It doesn’t care about what the future brings
It doesn’t care about lesser things
It doesn’t care about the rain
It doesn’t care about the pain
It doesn’t care about where it belongs
It doesn’t care about a silly love songs
It doesn’t care about right or wrong
It doesn’t care about the road being to long
It doesn’t care if the sun sets in the east
It doesn’t care about war and piece
It doesn’t care about the world in helter skelter
It doesn’t care about a warm shelter
It has no idea about mass destruction
For that takes too much contemplation
For politics it has no reaction
It needs no constitution
Just being is its satisfaction
It looks to no one for absolution
No homeland for repatriation
It has no skin for condemnation
It has no time for recreation
It has no room for damnation
A butterfly lives its life like there is no tomorrow
For a butterfly there is no tomorrow
A butterfly just wonders the earth sapping up life as it goes by
It owes nothing to anyone
Fly butterfly, fly and be free
Be free to be free

When U Were Mine
When you were mine- I gave you all of my money
Time after time - You done me wrong
It was just like a dream
You let all my friends come over and meet
And you were so strange
You didn't have the decency to change the sheets
Oh girl, when you were mine
I used to let you wear all my clothes
You were so fine (so fine)
Maybe that's the reason
That it hurt me so
I know (I know) - That you're going with another guy
I don't care (don't care) - Cuz I love u, baby, that's no lie
I love you more than I did
When you were mine - When you were mine
You were kinda sorta my best friend
So I was blind (so blind) - I let you fool around
I never cared (didn't care)
I never was the kind to make a fuss
When he was there - Sleeping inbetween the two of us
I know (I know) - That you're going with another guy
I don't care (don't care)
Cuz I love you, baby, that's no lie
I love you more than I did
When you were mine - When you were mine
U were all I ever wanted to do
Now I spend my time
Following him whenever he's with you
I know (I know)
That you're going with another guy
I don't care (don't care)
Cuz I love you, baby, that's no lie
I love you more that I did
When you were mine
When you were mine, yeah, oh no
Love you, baby - Love you, baby
When you were mine

Love Dont Love You
Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care
Love dont love you, love dont care
Verse 1:
You said youd always be there
You said youd always care
You always comfort me
You used to share things with me
You used to have time for me
Now it all seemed to end
I cant control my fears
Neither hold back tears
Knowing that somethings wrong, yeah
The more that I fight with you
The more I realize
It takes more than love
To satisfy my life
Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care (its got to be you, baby)
Love dont love you, love dont care (not love, baby)
Verse 2:
I thought I never would see
The day that you and me
Could not communicate
It came to my surprise
The only reason why
We misused the four-letter words
I should have known the signs
Instead I was blind
Ignoring what people would say
When will I ever learn
Cant blame it all on one word
Some words can seem more brutal than kind
Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care (love dont love you)
Love dont love you, love dont care (got to be you)
Love dont love you (love dont care about you, no way, no way, no way)
Love dont care no way
Bridge:
You see it takes a fool to learn
That love dont love nobody (got to be you)
But Ive learned
That love dont love me
And it sure cant love you (can only be you, oh)
So what are you gonna do
Dont just say you love me (baby)
You got to show me (show me that you care)
So where do we go from here
You tell me
You got to show me that you love me
Show me that you care
I need to know that you will always be there
Im gonna be there for you
Love dont love no one
And it sure dont care
Love dont love nobody
You should take my advice
Show me that you love me
Show me that you care, baby
Chorus:
Love dont love you, love dont care
Love dont love you, love dont care
(repeat chorus)

I Was A Fool To Care
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
But I dont care even if I was a fool
Im still in love with you
Had I listened to the grapevine
I might have had my doubts
But I did my level best just to block them out
cause love is so unwise and love has no eyes
And it took a while for a fool to see
What his friends were on about
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
But I dont care even if I was a fool
Im still in love with you
Imagining your face
It almost fills the empty space before me
I can see you eyes and almost hear your lovely lies
I wish I was an old man
And love was through with me
I wish I was a baby on my mamas knee
I wish I was a freight train moving down the line
Just keeping track of time
Without all these memories
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
I was a fool to care
But I dont care even if I was a fool
Im still in love with you
Baby, yes, I am
I could have opened my eyes
I could have seen through your lies
I could have stood for no more
I could have walked out the door
But I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care
But I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care
You werent nothing but a fool to care; just a country fool to care.

He doesn’t love me
He doesn’t love me
And I don’t need a clue or story
That I should give up, I better give up
I mustn’t let this feeling to live
He could slap me through my heart
Word always glued in my mouth
But everything I do is for him
He has a power in me
Tangles severe complication
He always screwing my mind
I can’t get him out of my head
I can not even hate him
He doesn’t love me
He doesn’t even look at me
But I don’t care, do I care?
He is my only reason to breath
He doesn’t love me
And I’m always out of his door
I continue hope, a broken hope
He will open a little for me
He leaves a scar that last forever
I always have a right to forget
But my love is blind, how could you help?
It’s easy to say than to go away
He doesn’t love me
And I don’t want pity or sorry
That he will never love me
Of all the worst things in the world could be

Her Open Relationship
You sleep with her.
She sleeps with him.
Together you live.
With a child bared.
Fight about what each other did.
Only to make it up at night.
You won't even take care of your own kid.
Not a single once of trust left alone with him.
Yet she doesn't care.
She works and sends the kid to family.
Thinking your crazy.
I know something she does not.
Another lie.
You never worked a day in you life.
Yet she doesn't care.
You blame it on a criminal record.
Yet she doesn't care.
Like a mother she needs someone to take care of.
You do drugs, and steal her savings for the child to pay for it.
Her revenge is humiliation of it in public.
Bare no false witness some would say.
Still together as you always were
Still together as you always will be.
No matter what she still loves you.
This is her open relationship.
I know this personally, for I told her the truth and she hated me for it.
I pulled her wool off her eyes as he was trying to get with three girls at the same time.
Still she doesn't care.
One was at my house waiting for him.
Such is the power of love so blind.

I Should Care
I should care
I should go around weeping
I should care
I should go without sleeping
Strangely enough I sleep well
'cept for a dream or two
But then I count my sheep well
Funny how sheep can love you to sleep
But I should care
I shouldn't let it upset me
I should care
But it just doesn't get me
Maybe I won't find someone
As lovely as you
But I should care
And I do
But I should care
And I do

Over In Love (instrumental)
Cold wind blows
Shivers loose
Hard rain
To my skin soaked through
So over in love with you
I don't even care
Sky turns grey
Black and blue
Fall on me
I can't be moved
So over in love with you
I don't even care
Hot sun shines
And lays bare
Shadows cross cut
Heavy air
So over in love with you
I don't even care
The tide that washes in and out
Reveals a heart
And face worn new
So over in love with you
I don't even care
I don't even care
I don't even care
I don't even care

Why should I Care
Back in the day
When I was younger
I wasn't afraid
Of giving my heart to you
Now and again
I get sentimental
But I know it's just a phase
I'm going throuth
And every time I start to slip
I just remind myself
I need only think of it
I went throuth so much hell
You say ya wanna get things back
The way they used to be
Can you give me one good reason
Why should I darlin'
Why should i care
Why should I care for you
Why should i care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should i care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care
Back in the day
I shoulda been wiser
But what can I say
I shoulda been onto you
But I was afraid
That you'd break my hert in two
Fate would it that you broke it anyway baby
And every time I close my eyes
I just remind myself
You told about a million lies
You put my heart throuth hell
And now you wanna get with me
Just for old times sake
Well I am not about to make that same mistake
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care
You see a girlthat you gave all your love
I see a girln you took advantage of
You see a girl that you cannot forget
I see a man that I cannot forgive
Tell me why

Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care for you

Love Don't Care (Whose Heart It Breaks)
I'm a lonely rider
She's the sole survivor of this love affair
But she don't care
She's a real heart breaker
And I can't find a taker
No, that can compare
'Cause she's so rare
She never let me hurt for love
She gave me all she had
But that was only long enough
To go from good to bad
Oh, but love don't care whose heart it breaks
It don't care who gets blown away
If it all falls through as a bad mistake
Love don't care whose heart it breaks
I can still remember
Every time I see her, I go back in time
And lose my mind
Yeah, I'm a good pretender
I just can't believe her heart's no longer mine
It's so unkind
She never let me hurt for love
She gave me all she had
But that was only long enough
To go from good to bad
Oh, but love don't care whose heart it breaks
It don't care who gets blown away
If it all falls through as a bad mistake
Love don't care whose heart it breaks
No, love don't care whose heart it breaks
Love don't care
No, love don't care
Love don't care
No, love don't care

Fool For Love
When I look into your eyes I see
Everything I was meant to be
If Im a fool in love
I dont care, I dont care
When were together
All I know
There is a place
I need to go
If Im a fool in love
I dont care, I dont care
If Im a fool in love
If Im a fool in love
If Im a fool in love
I dont care
I dont care
Visions of moonlight
In the park
We kissed and danced away
In the dark
If Im a fool in love
I dont care, I dont care
Was it wrong to show you
All I feel ?
No, I think that what
Does us in is the
Love were afraid to reveal...
Driving midnight highway one
Love is the ocean
Youre the one

She Wonders
Held in bondage to her mind
Pressure there, she can't unwind
She suspects, all that say they care
All that love her, she must beware
Does he love her or does he not
The silence so loud, that she forgot
What's he thinking, sitting so still?
Is he with her against his will?
She doesn't know what to say or do
Married to him, but she doesn't have a clue
She walks on egg shells most of the time
Is loving him such an aweful crime?
She aches inside for him to hold her hand
Or just a hug, can't he understand?
She just wants to feel loved by him
But the chances of that, are mighty slim
She wonders if she will ever feel his love
He doesn't abuse, but so neglectful of
In her life, no one has cared very much
She just yearns for her mans touch!

Not Just A Mom
My mom isn't just a mom at all
She's also something else
My mom isn't so quiet or shy
But she's proud and doesn't care what others say about her
My mom is like a friend who I will never forget
My mom is always there
Whether I'm sad, happy, lonely, or angry
She's always there, ready to listen
My mom always give me advices to overcome any problems
She supports me in any way
My mom is like a genius to me
She may not be like genius of studies
But she's a genius of me
My mom knows what I think, what I will say, she knows everything about me
My mom knows what to do to make me calm down
My mom knows how to make me automatically happy
My mom knows what and how I feel
My mom knows what I need the most
My mom is like an angel God sent from Heaven
My mom is loud, weird, and crazy
But she understands me the most
My mom always help me to fix my mistakes
My mom always help me to reach my dreams
My mom always love me no matter what
My mom doesn't care if I am handicapped
My mom doesn't care if I'm missing a finger
She doesn't care
My mom loves me the way I am
My mom is like someone who I can't give up on
My mom is like... a daughter of God.

Unsynced Feelings
Love but not loved,
Care but not cared.
Try but not tried,
But still I share.
Wait but not waited,
Not knowing the fate.
Taken but alone,
Make no mistake.
Pushed but don't push,
Asked but don't ask.
Give but don't take,
This may not last.
Still I will love,
Still I will care.
Still I will try,
I pray you're still there.

Lie Down
You got the smile of a monalisa,
Know it all an' giving nothing away.
You make the sins of a vestal virgin,
Look nothing more that a roll in the hay.
So lie down, i think i love you,
Lie down, i think i care.
Lie down, i think i love you,
Lie down, i think i care.
You give an air of the dolce vita,
Society's made a queen out of you.
Casanova couldn't take all your virtue,
But, rock 'n' roll is gonna steal it from you.
So lie down, i think i love you,
Lie down, i think i care.
Lie down, i think i love you,
Lie down, i think i care.
Come on, girl, it'll be alright,
Easy does it nice and slow.
Woah, you know, mama, that tonight's the night,
Come on and let your feelings show.
Take a look in the mirror,
Tell me what you see.
If it ain't sweet surrender
You can blame it on somebody, not the devil in me.
So lie down, i think i love you,
Lie down, i think i care.
Lie down, i think i love you,
Lie down, i think i care.
(solo)
Take a look in the mirror,
Tell me what you see.
If it ain't sweet surrender
You can blame it on somebody, not the devil in me.
Lie down, i think i love you,
Lie down, i think i care.
Lie down, i think i love you,
Lie down, i think i care...
