Gene Watson lyrics - Long Enough to Care

album: Love in the Hot Afternoon [EMI-Capitol] (1975)
album: Love in the Hot Afternoon & Paper Rosie (2002)
genre: 

(Bobby Sykes)

My mind told me that you didn't love me
But my heart was too far gone to beware
So you can't for me just long enough to love me
But you didn't love me long enough to care.

I can't make my mind accept the fact you're leaving
'Cause my heart just won't believe you been untrue
I can't understand this way of love you're weaving
When all of heaven knows I worship you.

--- Instrumental ---

Darling if my love's not strong enough to hold you
As you leave perhaps you'll be so kind
Will you take with you the moments that you gave me
And erase your loving mem'ry from my mind.

My mind told me that you didn't love me
But my heart was too far gone to beware
So you can't for me just long enough to love me
But you didn't love me long enough to care.

No, you didn't love me long enough to care...
