Lyrics
[Intro]
Come on, baby
[Verse 1]
You're the one that makes my day a dream come true
Yet and still you wonder if I think of you
You ought to see how the other girls behave when you're not around, oh no
And only then you would know that it's on your finger I'm wound, uh-huh
[Chorus]
If you were there you'd know
If you were there you'd know
If you were there you'd know
If you were there you'd know that I care
[Verse 2]
There's no need for you not to have faith in me
No, 'cause it's by your side, girl, that I long to be
Yes, there are times with my friends when I don't have much to say
What you don't know is with you I can never act that way, uh-huh
[Chorus]
If you were there you'd know
If you were there you'd know
If you were there you'd know
If you were there you'd know that I care
[Bridge]
I care for you, baby
I, I swear that I care
I care
[Verse 3]
There's no need for you not to have faith in me
No, 'cause it's by your side, girl, that I long to be
Yes, there are times with my friends when I don't have much to say, uh-uh
What you don't know is with you I could never act that way
[Chorus]
If you were there you'd know
If you were there you'd know
If you were there you'd know
If you were there you'd know that I care
[Outro]
I care for you, baby
I, I, I swear
I care for you, baby
I do, have faith in me
I care for you, baby
Oh
