Lets Say I Stopped Loving You

Let’s say I stopped loving you Would you care? If I looked you into the eyes then walked away Would you just stand there? Then a few minutes later walk away Or would you chase me down wanting me to stay? Do you get concerned when I cry? Do you think of me at night? Are you happy I’m in your life? Do you not care about my mistakes? If we had to would you run away with me? When it came down to it Would you protect me? Stay faithful to me? Be there for me? Love me? Let’s say I stopped loving you Because it was wasting my time Every question I asked you didn’t answer right You’ve failed the test And excuses won’t save you this time Because i"m no longer lustfully blind I clearly see the truth And there’s nothing you can do Lets say I stopped loving you Because you wouldn’t care I’m walking away and I can already feel you just standing there Preparing to move on Because to you I'm not worth the chase The tears on my cheeks don’t matter Instead of being my protector You left me out in the cold To defend on my own You couldn’t stay faithful to me You were never there for me You never loved me Let’s say I stopped loving you Truth is I never started
