Loving you
Came easily
Yet it made me blind to all there was to see
Now my heart is filled with pain
To understand
I never will
How did it come to be that you don't love me still?
Now it's getting to be plain
[Refrão:]
If you really cared about anyone else
I know you wouldn't hurt me
If you cared about more than yourself
I bet ya wouldn't go
If you really cared about anyone else
I know you wouldn't hurt me
If you cared about more than yourself
You wouldn't walk out the door
[Ponte:]
Though some days the blues was our parade,
Still we marched through all the tears we made
Now I find that it was an old game of charades that you played...
I did my best
To bring you joy
How can you just leave me like a broken toy?
Where's the man that once was you?
If I could be
Within your mind
I would never think to treat you this unkind
The pain you caused will come to you
[Refrão]
