I Should Care

King Crimson · Other Songs - King Crimson

I should care, i should go around weeping

I should care, i should go without sleeping

Strangely enough, i sleep well

'cept for a dream or two

But then i count my sheep well

Funny how sheep can lull you to sleep



So i should care, i should let it upset me

I should care but it just doesn't get me

Maybe i won't find someone as lovely as you

But i should care and i do



brief instrumental interlude



I should care but it just doesn't get me

Maybe i won't find someone as lovely as you

But i should care and i do



And i do
