lyrics

IF I DIDN'T WANT YOU JUST THINK HOW GOOD LIFE WOULD BE
I COULD FORGET YOU SO EASILY
I’D NEVER CRY I’D BE OVER YOU
AND I COULD FACE THE TRUTH

IF I DIDN'T NEED U - I’D TURN THE RADIO ON
AND IT WOULDN'T KILL ME - WHEN I HEARD OUT OLD SONG
AND PHOTOGRAPHYS OF YOU & ME
WOULDN'T BRING BACK MEMORIES

WHAT I COULD DO – IF I DIDN'T LOVE YOU
WHAT I COULD DO – IF I DIDN'T HURT FOR YOU
IF I WASN'T DYING - FROM THIS BROKEN HEART
I’D BE GOOD AS NEW - OH WHAT I COULD DO
IF I DIDN'T LOVE YOU

IF IT WAS EASY SLEEPIN ALONE AT NIGHT
THERE’D BE NO REASON TO LAY THERE AND CRY
AND I’D NO LONGER BE YOUR FOOL
OH THE THINGS I WOULDN'T DO

IF MY HEART WASN'T BROKE I’D CALL UP AN OLD FLAME
I’D SHOW HIM THE STARS AND GIVE UP MY NAME
AND LOVE HIM MORE THAN I LOVED YOU
OH BUT WHO AM I TRYIN TO FOOL

CHORUS

UMM HMM - WHAT I COULD DO – IF I DIDN'T LOVE YOU
