reflections (care enough)

reflections of your love

have come to wither

i thought i'd done my best to memorize

a picture fades of you and i together

i haven't come to terms

with how we said goodbye

did you really care

care at all for me

did you really care

did you care at all for me

a displaced little girl

wept years in silence

and whispered wishes you'd materialize

she pressed on night and day

to keep on living

and tried so many ways

to keep her soul alive

did you really care

care enough for me

did you really care

did you care at all for me

if i'm not quite good enough

or somehow undeserving of

a mother's love

you could have had the decency

to give me up

before you gave me life

don't you even care

just the slightest little bit for me

cause i really need to feel you cared

even once upon a time for me

i need to believe

in my heart of heart of hearts

you care for me

i need to understand

why you left me there so helplessly

don't you even care

care at all for me

reflections of your love

have come to wither

i thought i'd done my best to memorize
