Lyrics

I don’t care where you go
I don’t care what you do
I don’t care what you said
I just care that you love me

I don’t care where you go
I don’t care what you do
I don’t care what you said
I just care that you love me

Sometimes love happens
Things you never dreamed

I don’t care what you do
I don’t care it’s not my thing
I don’t care about diamond rings
I just care that you need it

I don’t care about next year
I don’t care about yesterday
I don’t care you don’t see it
I just care that you feel it

Sometimes love happens
Things you never dreamed

I don’t mean it
I do care
I would follow you
Anywhere

Sometimes love happens
Things you never dreamed
Sometimes the beauty overwhelms you
Well, love is blind
Not this time
Love is blind
Not this time
I see you clearly
Don’t take that love away…ooh baby
Fade away

I don’t care what you do
I don’t care it’s not my thing
I don’t care about diamond rings
I just care that you need it

I don’t care about next year
I don’t care
I don’t care
I don’t care you don’t see it
I just care that you feel it

Ooh, baby

I don’t mean it
I do care
No, I don’t mean it
I’d follow you anywhere
What would my life be without you in it
Shattered, broken, lost, and empty
In the mirror

I don’t mean it
I do care
I would follow you anywhere
What would my life be without you in it
Shattered, broken, lost, and silent

I don’t care
Love is blind
Not this time
Now I see you clearly

Don’t take that love away
Ooh baby
Ooh baby
I saw to you sincerely
Ooh baby
Ooh baby
Don’t let that love fade away
Ooh baby
Ooh baby

Love is blind
But not this time
Love is blind
But not this time
Ooh, baby
Love is blind
Not this time
Ooo baby
Ooh baby
