Lyrics Don't You Know I Care? - Duke Ellington & His Orchestra

Don't you know I care or don't you care to know?
If you know I care, how can you hurt me so?
Darling, you are part of every breath I take
Would you break my heart or give my heart a break?
I can't figure out what love's all about and where I fit into your scheme
Am I wasting time? Please tell me 'cause I'm down to my last dream
Darling, please be fair, love me or let me go
Don't you know I care or don't you care to know?
