Care For Me

"I used to always tell my girl that without her I couldn't live

For her all my love I would give

I would try & be with her every second of every minute

Thought that we were both in it to win it

We then began to argue, her saying she was through

And me I didn't want to

She would say that I was crazy then that I didn't care

I would just sit & think "My heart is all I'm trying to share."

She said I cared too much & all I gave her was a blank stare

How can I care too much, I thought I didn't care enough?

I admit, for me to take that in it was a little rough

I then changed my ways & focused on me

I figured, "If I'm not there she'll miss & then see"

That her appreciation for me was never fully there

Weeks passed & again she claimed I didn't care

That's when I realized it wasn't me it was her

What she really wanted she wasn't sure

She had no idea how to handle what I was giving

She tried to blame me for the way she was living

So this goes out to the lovers like myself

The ones that do so much for others & little for themselves

Don't remain somewhere when you're not appreciated

Leave it alone while you can & go to where you are

Trust me, you'll be glad you never sat around and waited."
