If I Didn't Care
The Moments Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I didn't care more than words can say
If I didn't care would I feel this way?
If this isn't love then why do I thrill?
And what makes my head go round and round
While my heart stands still?

If I didn't care would it still be the same?
Would my every prayer begin and end with just, just your name?
And would I be sure that this is love beyond compare?




Would all this be true if I didn't care for you?

on I Don't Want To Go

Lately I been Known
For making up excuses
And all too many times
Wondering what the use is now
Nothing like it used to be
When you and me
Were all I ever dreamed of

Dreams just don't come true
Just the way you planned them
And looking back in time
I still don't understand just how
The feeling comes and goes
And before I start to lie
I want you to know

[Chorus]
I Don't wanna go
But I can't stay here no more
I don't wanna go
Cause it just ain't like before
I don't want you to love me
And ohh how I wish I
Loved you like I did
Honey you know I did

Did we turn away
Just when we saw it coming
And could we have been saved
Or would we still
Be running scared
The space became so wide
That no matter how I tried
There was just no place to hide

Ohh Baby

[Chorus]
I Don't wanna go
But I can't stay here no more
I don't wanna go
Cause it just ain't like before
I don't want you to love me
And ohh how I wish I
Loved you like I did
Honey you know I did

Repeat 2x
[Chorus]
I Don't wanna go
But I can't stay here no more
I don't wanna go
But it just ain't like before
I don't want you to love me
And ohh how I wish I
Loved you like I did
Honey you know I did

I Don't wanna go
But I can't stay here no more
I don't wanna go
But it just ain't like before

I Just
(But I can't stay here no more
I don't wanna go
But it just ain't like before
I don't want you to love me)
I Just
(I don't wanna go
But it just ain't like before)

I don't wanna go
But it just ain't like
Just like before
