I Don't Care

Your smile's your pride, like you, pretty and bright.
Your habit in life and fashion: to keep everything light.
I wear the face that looks at least five minutes late.
I've no regard for matters without a little weight.

You won't hear a single word to cloud over your day.
Misfortune's something you ignore until it goes away.
I respect your right to close your eyes, but that way's not for me.
I keep mine open, straight ahead, and what will be will be.

I told you as soon as I heard.  I knew that move was wrong,
But once you chose your latest path, you had to move along.
Worry didn't keep me up.  I just preferred the night.
I don't care if you were happy, as long as I was right.
