Love don't love you, love don't care Love don't love you, love don't care You said you'd always be there You said you'd 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 can't control my fears Neither hold back tears Knowing that something's wrong, yeah The more that I fight with you The more I realize It takes more than love To satisfy my life Love don't love you, love don't care (it's got to be you, baby) Love don't love you, love don't care (not love, baby) 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 Can't blame it all on one word Some words can seem more brutal than kind Love don't love you, love don't care (love don't love you) Love don't love you, love don't care (got to be you) Love don't love you (love don't care about you, no way, no way, no way) Love don't care No way You see it takes a fool to learn That love don't love nobody (got to be you) But I've learned That love don't love me And it sure can't love you (can only be you, oh) So what are you gonna do Don't 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 I'm gonna be there for you Love don't love no one And it sure don't care Love don't love nobody You should take my advice Show me that you love me Show me that you care, baby Love don't love you, love don't care Love don't love you, love don't care Love don't love you, love don't care Love don't love you, love don't care
