'Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?' 'That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,' said the Cat. 'I don't much care where—' said Alice. 'Then it doesn't matter which way you go,' said the Cat." — Lewis Carroll in Alice in Wonderland


And it does not matter which way you go...

I don’t love you
I just want to know you are always there
It doesn’t mean I love you

I don’t care for you
I just need to know if you have made it home
It doesn’t mean I care for you

I don’t want you
I just want you to want me
It doesn’t mean I want you

I don’t think about you
I just want you to call me sometime
It doesn’t mean I think about you

I don’t need you
I just have to know who you are with tonight
It doesn’t mean I need you

I don’t wait for you
I just like to stay up very very late
It doesn’t mean I wait for you

I don’t notice you
Just because I sense your sadness today
It doesn’t mean I notice you

I don’t wait for you to look my way
Just because I look at you
It doesn’t mean I wait for you to look my way

I don’t feel anything for you
It just stings when I see you with someone other than me
It doesn’t mean I feel anything for you

I don’t want anything from you
I only want you to know I am here
It doesn’t mean I want anything from you

So the best thing you can do for me
Is to leave me alone
When I look at you and you understand what I am trying to say

Turn around and for God’s sake, just walk away
