Текст: Toni Braxton. Secrets. Why Should I Care?.

Back in the day
When I was younger
I wasn't afraid
Of giving my heart to you
Now and again
I get sentimental
But I know it's just a phase I'm going through
And every time I start to slip
I just remind myself
I need only think of it
I went through so much hell
You say ya wanna get things back
The way they used to be
Can you give me one good reason
Why I should, darlin'?

Why should I care?
(Why should I care for you?)
Why should I care?
(Why should I care for you?)
Why should I care?
(Why should I care for you?)
Oh darlin'
Why should I care?
(Why should I care?)
Ooh

Back in the day
I should've been wiser
(Darlin)
But what can I say
I shoulda been onto you
But I was afraid
That you'd break my heart in two
Fate would have it that you broke it anyway, baby
Every time I close my eyes
(I close my eyes)
(I just remind myself)
I just remind myself
You told about a million lies
(You told about a million lies)
You put my heart through hell
(You put my heart through hell)
And now you wanna get with me
(And now you wanna get with me)
Just for old times sake
Well, I am not about to make that same mistake
(That same mistake)
Woh

Why should I care?
(Why should I care for you?)
Why should I care?
(Why should I care for you?)
Why should I care?
(Why should I care for you?)
Oh darlin', tell me why should I care?
(Why should I care?)
(Why should I care?)
Ooh

You see a girl
(You see a girl)
That you gave all your love
I see a girl
(I see a girl)
You took advantage of
You see a girl
(You see a girl)
That you cannot forget
I see a man that I cannot forgive
Tell me why?

(Why should I care for you?)
Why should I care?
(Why should I care for you?)
Why should I give a damn thing that?
(Why should I care for you?)
Ooh, why should I care?, should I care?
(Why should I care?)

Back in the day when I was young
(Why should I care for you?)
I wasn't afraid to love
Back in the day
(Why should I care for you?)
You were the one, what was I thinking of ?
Back in the day
(Why should I care for you?)
Should've been wiser
Should've been onto you
But I was afraid, made a mistake
(Why should I care for you?)
No one knows
Tell me why?

(Why should I care for you?)
Why should I care?
(Why should I care for you?)
Why should I care?
(Why should I care for you?)
Why should I care?
(Why should I care?)
Why should I care?
