Lyrics

[Verse 1: Patti Austin] Loving you came easily Yet it made me blind to all there was to see Now my heart is filled with pain You understand I never will How did it come to be that you don't love me still? Now it's getting to be plain [Chorus: Patti Austin] If you really cared about anyone else I know you wouldn't hurt me If you cared about more than yourself I bet you 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 [Bridge: Patti Austin] Though some days the blues was our parade Still we marched through all the tears we made Now I find it wasn't no game of charades that you played [Verse 2: Patti Austin] 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? Whoa-ho If I could be within your mind I would never think to treat you this unkind The pain you caused will come to you [Chorus: Patti Austin] If you really cared about anyone else I know you wouldn't hurt me If you cared about more than yourself I bet you wouldn't go, no no 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 If you really cared about anyone else I know you wouldn't hurt me If you cared about more than yourself I bet you wouldn't go, no no 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 If you really cared about anyone else I know you wouldn't hurt me
