If You Loved Me

IF YOU LOVED ME - Written by Carroll Bryant

It was early in the morning when I

Cut myself shaving and I

Didn’t even feel it

For my only thought was on you

 

Yes I’m flimsy with my feelings

At times I tend to forget

That you’re with me

That you left me

And the pain will get to me yet

 

Give it time I tell myself

In time she will regret

 

If you loved me you would tell me

You would save me from this hell

But you didn’t

And you’ll never

No, you never will

If you loved me you wouldn’t leave me

You would take me by the hand

But you didn’t

And you’ll never

No, you never will

You know you can’t

 

It was easy in the evening when I

Drank myself silly and I

Passed out forever

Waking up again to believe

 

Yes I’m lonely with my feelings

At times I tend to expect

That you’ll hear me

That you hate me

And the truth will get to me yet

 

Give it time I tell myself

In time she will regret

 

If you loved me you would tell me

You would save me from this hell

But you didn’t

And you’ll never

No, you never will

If you loved me you wouldn’t leave me

You would take me by the hand

But you didn’t

And you’ll never

No, you never will

You know you can’t

 

This dizzy world keeps getting me down

My weakest moment is right about now

I fall to pieces at the thought

I crawl to save myself from you

 

From me

 

If you loved me you would bring me

You would offer me some help

But you didn’t

And you’ll never

No, you never will

If you loved me you wouldn’t break me

You would finally take a stand

But you didn’t

And you’ll never

No, you never will

You know you can’t

 

If you loved me you would tell me

You would save me from this hell

But you didn’t

And you’ll never

No, you never will

If you loved me you wouldn’t leave me

You would take me by the hand

But you didn’t

And you’ll never

No, you never will

You know you can’t
