Though I understood
All the things that you told me
You were going through
Tried to be there and wanted
To pull you through
And show you how much you've loved
Make a song and dance
Whenever i would ask you
Just what was wrong
You would say something like
Nothing hon
All along telling me lies
If you really cared
Cared about me
Then you would care about
Care about us
If you cared about me
Then you would have cared about love [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/g/gabrielle/if_you_really_cared.html ]
Felt betrayed
I was giving good loving
Yet still you strayed
Wasn't I good enough
You were oh so sweet
I guess it was your sweetness
That blinded me.
If you really cared....
If you cared
You would be there for me
You wouldn't have left me
Feeling lonely
If you really cared
Then you would have cared about us
Cared about love
Said you cared
Now you're asking for forgiveness
It's much too late
I don't want you near
If you cared about me
Then you would have cared about love
If you really cared
Cared about me
Then you wouldn't have
Hurt me as you did
If you cared about me
Then you would have cared
About love
When someone give you a false hope, you spend you're days dreaming of this person and they let you dream, but secretly there minds are somewhere else. Then when you figure it out your left on yoou're own and they dont seem to 'care' but yet they say that they do, but actions speek louder than words. And that is the meaning of 'if you really cared'
