If You Don'T Love Me

If you don't love me If you don't love me, too bad for me, cause I love you If you don't love me, Tell me what I need to do Bridge 1 Please be gentle, I'll be temperamental, If you don't love me Chorus If you don't love me, there's not much that I can do If you don't love me I'll go, but I can't forget you It will be rough it takes two to love Now you don't love me If you don't want me, my feet will move towards the door If you don't want me, my heart can't take it anymore Bridge 2 Please be gentle I'm temperamental now you don't want me Chorus If you don't love me, there's not much that I can do If you don't love me I'll go, but I can't forget you It will be rough it takes two to love Now you don't love me Bridge 2 Please be gentle I'm temperamental now you don't want me Chorus If you don't love me, there's not much that I can do If you don't love me I'll go, but I can't forget you It will be rough it takes two to love Now you don't love me Now you don't love me repeat and fade May 19,2019 John Derek Hamilton

I love gentle and temperamental together! I may have to remember that, they flow in your song like a river running down stream. Beautiful lyrics, thanks for sharing :)-luloo

Thanks Laura, this is a very simple rhyme, and I was hesitant to post it as my lyrics have been called simple too many times, my retort...worked for Lennon and McCartney!

One-sided love is hard to bear! A good topic for a song. I have been sitting here for 5 mins trying to sing along to the lyrics; pity I can't write music! You can teach me a thing or two, John:) Regards // paul

Thanks Paul, you picked one of my simplest lyrics, but indeed it has a cadence that easily leads to a melody. I do appreciate your kind words and visit!

I really like the song of this; and it certainly IS a song-poem!

John, very nice, I like the bridges and choruses and the mingling of all the parts, I am no song writer but think it is good !
