Lyrics

[Intro]

Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

[Chorus]

I don't care what they think about me and

I don't care what they say

I don't care what they think, if you're leaving

I'm gonna beg you to stay

[Chorus]

I don't care if they start to avoid me

I don't care what they do

I don't care about anything else but

Being with you, being with you

[Verse 1]

Honey, don't go, don't leave the scene

Be out of the picture and off of the screen

Don't let them say, "We told you so"

They tell me you'll love me and then let me go

[PreChorus]

I've heard the warning voice from friends and my relations

They tell me all about your heartbreak reputation, but

[Chorus]

I don't care what they think about me and

I don't care what they say, no

I don't care what they think, if you're leaving

I'm gonna beg you to stay

[Chorus]

I don't care if they start to avoid me

I don't care what they do

I don't care about anything else but

Being with you, being with you

[Bridge]

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]

People can change, they always do

Haven't they noticed the changes in you?

Or can it be that like love, I am blind?

Do I want it so much till it's all in my mind?

[PreChorus]

One thing I know for sure is really, really real

I've never felt before, the way you make me feel

[Chorus]

I don't care what they think about me and

I don't care what they say, ooh-ooh

I don't care what they think, if you're leaving

I'm gonna beg you to stay

[Chorus]

I don't care if they start to avoid me

I don't care what they do

I don't care about anything else but

Being with you, being with you

[Outro]

Being with you, being with you (Being with you)

I don't care about anything else but

Being with you, being with you

I wanna be with you (Being with you)

I don't care if they start to avoid me

Being with you (Being with you)

I don't care what they do (Being with you)

I don't care about anything else
