There she was
Laughing, talking, window shopping with a new guy
And I'd heard about him
I heard she found him right around when we said goodbye

And I came real close and almost lost my temper
But I bit my tongue, kept my cool, cause I remembered

I don't care
She don't matter
I don't love her anymore, he can have her
I don't know why it slips my mind
I tell myself all the time
Guess I forgot again for a second there
That I don't care

Almost ten
I should've known his car would still be parked in her drive
Almost pulled in
Knocked on her door and gave her a piece of my mind

Oh, but I just kept on driving back to my place
Wondering why I went so far out of my way when

I don't care
She don't matter
I don't love her anymore, he can have her
I don't know why it slips my mind
I tell myself all the time
Guess I forgot again for a second there
That I don't care

When I got home, the light was blinking on that old machine
She said, "My brother's been in town, but he just left
And I miss you, give me a ring"

I still care
She's all that matters
I still love her just like always, gotta have her
I never got her off my mind, been hoping she would call sometime
I know it's late to be driving over there, but I don't care
I don't care
