I Care For U

Usher · Looking 4 Myself [2012]

I'm saying, I care but is like, you don't hear me

What more could I do?



Girl you can keep that, trying to make me jealous

I admit that I been careless

But we can't take back what's done

I know why you did that

You're frustrated cause I don't react

Maybe you want some feedback

Cause normally my feelings don't show



But baby I care for you

By now you should now that I care for you

You say my actions never show it

And I wear my heart on my sleeve

But what you get is what you see

The truth is girl underneath

Gotta believe that I care for you

Baby I care for you

I, i, I care

I, i, I care for you



Everyday I tryna prove myself to you

But what's the point

No such thing is satisfying you

Maybe you'll appreciate it later

By the time i'm gone

Better get your act together

Don't wait too long

Don't wanna change what we have

So what do we have?

Girl I need you to know



That I care for you

By now you should now that I care for you

You say my actions never show it

And I wear my heart on my sleeve

But what you get is what you see

The truth is girl underneath

Gotta believe that I care for you

Baby I care for you

I, i, I care

I, i, I care for you, I do



Gotta believe it

Gotta believe it

I care

Gotta believe it

Gotta believe it

I care, I care

You know I care



I care for you

By now you should now that I care for you

You say my actions never show it

And I wear my heart on my sleeve

But what you get is what you see

The truth is girl underneath

Gotta believe that I care for you

Baby I care for you



I care, I care, I care for you
