Today “i know you dont care, i wish you would care, i wish you were there.” Came into my mind and i tried remembering where it came from.... for a moment i thought it was my melody, and after searching for the lyrics i remembered it came from this song... i love it so much, even after many tears i keep coming back to it, its so comforting
With tragedy avoided And everything in its proper place I hope people are pointing That sucker finally fell from grace And when he did he stained his blue jeans And burned his hand with a cigarette But the truth is, he felt nothing Except for the cold and regret Just regret 'Cause I really had a bad night And I think that you should disapprove In fact, please just disown me I don't deserve the likes of you And right now, I can't stand them And wish that you would leave the room But even then, I'd miss you I would cry and I'd curse the things we do I can't picture a sadder scene in my head Then going home alone to my empty bed I know you don't care No, I know you don't care But I wish you would care I just wish you were there Okay, so these are my bad habits And they might as well be caught on tape And if you are ashamed of me I wish you'd say it to my face And it's okay to worry 'Cause I'd think you're crazy if you don't And if you can't admit that Then say you're scared At least I'm not alone At least I'm not alone The next day, I tried to call you To apologize for the night before And then, at once, I realized I had nothing to be sorry for Oh, you're so sweet and faithful And you're sticking to your guns Now that's a first But I want to know why your chamber Was empty when the roles were reversed The last thing I remember I was dancing to James Brown I have this way of turning smiles Into frowns Oh, and I know you don't care No, I know you don't care But I wish you would care I just wish you were there I know you don't care No, I know you don't care But I wish you would care I just wish you were there Now, since my mother told me That there's no such thing as Santa Claus Has a let down been so blissful In its pain-so pure and raw But now, of course, there's you to add To the very top of that sorry list Except even as you are real I know, in fact, you don't exist And that tonight, you're out there somewhere And that you couldn't even pretend to care You could not pretend to care And if you tell one more lie to me I swear to God, you'll turn to stone If you tell one more lie to me Prepare to get your cover blown And if you still play with matches You're probably there to catch a-blaze And I might just pass you on the street With an empty urge to fan the flames Some singers lose priority at the drop of a dime Oh well, fuck it, better luck next time- Doesn't heal No, time It does not heal When I sat down to write this You were not even on my mind But as it started racing You wrote yourself in every line And I kissed you with my eyes closed And when I woke there was not a trace Of your nightmares that were untied* I'll lend you mind to take their place And I wish my tears could take flight And haunt you as you sleep in bed And swallow your entire room Until the stuff fills up your breath You're a liar And a drunk And so am I, I know it's true But the part that really kills me Is it's clear that I'm not over you Not over you Not over you It's so clear I'm not over you Not over you Not over you Why am I not over you?

With tragedy avoided and everything in its proper place, Con la tragedia evitata e ogni cosa al suo posto I hope people are pointing, Spero che le persone stiano indicando that sucker finally fell from grace. quello stronzo finalmente caduto in disgrazia and when he did he stained his blue jeans, e quando lui si macchiò i blue jeans and burned his hand with a cigarette. e bruciato la mano con una sigaretta but truth is, he felt nothing. ma la verità è che non ha sentito nulla except for the cold and regret, just regret. eccetto il freddo e il rimorso, solo il rimorso cause I really had a bad night, perché ho davvero avuto una notte orribile and I think that you should disapprove e penso che tu dovresti disapprovarlo in fact, please just disown me infatti, per favore, rinnegami I don’t deserve the likes of you Non merito di piacerti and right now I can’t stand them, E ora come ora non riesco a sopportarli and wish that you would leave the room E vorrei che tu lasciassi la stanza but even then I’d miss you, ma anche a quel punto mi mancheresti and I’d cry and curse the things we do. e piangerei e maledico le cose che facciamo I can’t picture a sadder scene in my head, Non riesco ad immaginare una scena più triste nella mia mente than going home alone to my empty bed. di quella di tornare a casa nel mio letto vuoto I know you don’t care, no, I know you don’t care. So che a te non importa, so che a te non importa but I wish you would care, I just wish you were there. ma vorrei che ti importasse, vorrei solo che fossi lì I know you don’t care, no, I know you don’t care. So che a te non importa, so che a te non importa but I wish you would care, I just wish you were there. ma vorrei che ti importasse, vorrei solo che fossi lì okay, so these are my bad habits, oka, quindi queste sono le mie cattive abitudini and they might as well be caught on tape e potrebbero anche essere immortalate and if you are ashamed of me, I wish you’d say it to my face. e se ti vergogni di me, vorrei che me lo dicessi in faccia and it’s okay to worry, cause I think you’re crazy if you don’t e va bene preoccuparsi, perché penso tu sia pazza se non lo fai and if you can’t admit that, e se non riesci ad ammetterlo then say you’re scared, at least I’m not alone. allora dici che hai paura, almeno non sono solo at least I’m not alone. almeno non sono solo The next day I tried to call you, Il giorno dopo ho provato a chiarmarti to apologize for the night before per chiederti scusa della notte precedente and then, at once, I realized e poi, d’un tratto, ho realizzato I have nothing to be sorry for non ho niente di cui scusarmi oh, you’re so sweet and faithful, oh , sei così dolce e fedele and you’re sticking to your guns, e sei rimasta coerente a te stessa now that’s a first. ora sarebbe la prima volta but I wanna know why your chamber was empty when the roles were reversed ma voglio sapere perché la tua stanza era vuota quando i ruoli erano invertiti the last thing I remember, I was dancing to James Brown. l’ultima cosa che ricordo, stavo ballando su James Brown I have this way of turning smiles into frowns.

Genuinely love/hate that 14 years later (14!!!) and happily in love that this song still resonates and it’s not on Spotify. A very wild ride. Bless.
I guess some people were just born to be good at everything they decide and work to be! A great actor and an amazing songwriter and singer. :)
Today “i know you dont care, i wish you would care, i wish you were there.” Came into my mind and i tried remembering where it came from.... for a moment i thought it was my melody, and after searching for the lyrics i remembered it came from this song... i love it so much, even after many tears i keep coming back to it, its so comforting
Can't believe he didn't record this song and put it on Spotify
he's perfect. his voice is so beautiful
He is just amazing at acting , singing , music , & I'm sure other things we don't even know of yet . Lots to come ! Go John !
Please Johnny, record an album soon!!!!
Wow I love this song
Actually in love
his best song!
He sings! He acts! He plays the guitar!
On top of all that, he's a nice guy. Phew!
omg...LOVELOVELOVELOVELOVELOVE-3
my fav song of his-3
With tragedy avoided
And everything in its proper place
I hope people are pointing
That sucker finally fell from grace
And when he did he stained his blue jeans
And burned his hand with a cigarette
But the truth is, he felt nothing
Except for the cold and regret
Just regret
'Cause I really had a bad night
And I think that you should disapprove
In fact, please just disown me
I don't deserve the likes of you
And right now, I can't stand them
And wish that you would leave the room
But even then, I'd miss you
I would cry and I'd curse the things we do
I can't picture a sadder scene in my head
Then going home alone to my empty bed
I know you don't care
No, I know you don't care
But I wish you would care
I just wish you were there
Okay, so these are my bad habits
And they might as well be caught on tape
And if you are ashamed of me
I wish you'd say it to my face
And it's okay to worry
'Cause I'd think you're crazy if you don't
And if you can't admit that
Then say you're scared
At least I'm not alone
At least I'm not alone
The next day, I tried to call you
To apologize for the night before
And then, at once, I realized
I had nothing to be sorry for
Oh, you're so sweet and faithful
And you're sticking to your guns
Now that's a first
But I want to know why your chamber
Was empty when the roles were reversed
The last thing I remember
I was dancing to James Brown
I have this way of turning smiles
Into frowns
Oh, and I know you don't care
No, I know you don't care
But I wish you would care
I just wish you were there
I know you don't care
No, I know you don't care
But I wish you would care
I just wish you were there
Now, since my mother told me
That there's no such thing as Santa Claus
Has a let down been so blissful
In its pain-so pure and raw
But now, of course, there's you to add
To the very top of that sorry list
Except even as you are real
I know, in fact, you don't exist
And that tonight, you're out there somewhere
And that you couldn't even pretend to care
You could not pretend to care
And if you tell one more lie to me
I swear to God, you'll turn to stone
If you tell one more lie to me
Prepare to get your cover blown
And if you still play with matches
You're probably there to catch a-blaze
And I might just pass you on the street
With an empty urge to fan the flames
Some singers lose priority at the drop of a dime
Oh well, fuck it, better luck next time-
Doesn't heal
No, time
It does not heal
When I sat down to write this
You were not even on my mind
But as it started racing
You wrote yourself in every line
And I kissed you with my eyes closed
And when I woke there was not a trace
Of your nightmares that were untied*
I'll lend you mind to take their place
And I wish my tears could take flight
And haunt you as you sleep in bed
And swallow your entire room
Until the stuff fills up your breath
You're a liar
And a drunk
And so am I, I know it's true
But the part that really kills me
Is it's clear that I'm not over you
Not over you
Not over you
It's so clear I'm not over you
Not over you
Not over you
Why am I not over you?
I know you don't care
No, I know you don't care
But I wish you would care
I just wish you were there
I know you don't care
No, I know you don't care
But I wish you would care
I just wish you were there
I know you don't care
No, I know you don't care
But I wish you would care
I just wish you were there
Amazing song ❤
I think the *line is:
When I woke there was not a trace
*if your nightmares ever run dry...
I'll lend you mine to take their place
@@geraldinepoet5292 Thank you so much! It was the only line I wasn't sure about it!
ok I am still waiting for the studio ver Johnny
is he that idiot in the movie hush? i like him in that movie.
B.B.
With tragedy avoided and everything in its proper place,
Con la tragedia evitata e ogni cosa al suo posto
I hope people are pointing,
Spero che le persone stiano indicando
that sucker finally fell from grace.
quello stronzo finalmente caduto in disgrazia
and when he did he stained his blue jeans,
e quando lui si macchiò i blue jeans
and burned his hand with a cigarette.
e bruciato la mano con una sigaretta
but truth is, he felt nothing.
ma la verità è che non ha sentito nulla
except for the cold and regret, just regret.
eccetto il freddo e il rimorso, solo il rimorso
cause I really had a bad night,
perché ho davvero avuto una notte orribile
and I think that you should disapprove
e penso che tu dovresti disapprovarlo
in fact, please just disown me
infatti, per favore, rinnegami
I don’t deserve the likes of you
Non merito di piacerti
and right now I can’t stand them,
E ora come ora non riesco a sopportarli
and wish that you would leave the room
E vorrei che tu lasciassi la stanza
but even then I’d miss you,
ma anche a quel punto mi mancheresti
and I’d cry and curse the things we do.
e piangerei e maledico le cose che facciamo
I can’t picture a sadder scene in my head,
Non riesco ad immaginare una scena più triste nella mia mente
than going home alone to my empty bed.
di quella di tornare a casa nel mio letto vuoto
I know you don’t care, no, I know you don’t care.
So che a te non importa, so che a te non importa
but I wish you would care, I just wish you were there.
ma vorrei che ti importasse, vorrei solo che fossi lì
I know you don’t care, no, I know you don’t care.
So che a te non importa, so che a te non importa
but I wish you would care, I just wish you were there.
ma vorrei che ti importasse, vorrei solo che fossi lì
okay, so these are my bad habits,
oka, quindi queste sono le mie cattive abitudini
and they might as well be caught on tape
e potrebbero anche essere immortalate
and if you are ashamed of me, I wish you’d say it to my face.
e se ti vergogni di me, vorrei che me lo dicessi in faccia
and it’s okay to worry, cause I think you’re crazy if you don’t
e va bene preoccuparsi, perché penso tu sia pazza se non lo fai
and if you can’t admit that,
e se non riesci ad ammetterlo
then say you’re scared, at least I’m not alone.
allora dici che hai paura, almeno non sono solo
at least I’m not alone.
almeno non sono solo
The next day I tried to call you,
Il giorno dopo ho provato a chiarmarti
to apologize for the night before
per chiederti scusa della notte precedente
and then, at once, I realized
e poi, d’un tratto, ho realizzato
I have nothing to be sorry for
non ho niente di cui scusarmi
oh, you’re so sweet and faithful,
oh , sei così dolce e fedele
and you’re sticking to your guns,
e sei rimasta coerente a te stessa
now that’s a first.
ora sarebbe la prima volta
but I wanna know why your chamber was empty when the roles were reversed
ma voglio sapere perché la tua stanza era vuota quando i ruoli erano invertiti
the last thing I remember, I was dancing to James Brown.
l’ultima cosa che ricordo, stavo ballando su James Brown
I have this way of turning smiles into frowns.
Ho questo modo di trasformare i sorrisi in un espressione accigliata
I know you don’t care, no, I know you don’t care.
So che a te non importa, so che a te non importa
but I wish you would care, I just wish you were there.
ma vorrei che ti importasse, vorrei solo che fossi lì
I know you don’t care, no, I know you don’t care.
So che a te non importa, so che a te non importa
but I wish you would care, I just wish you were there.
ma vorrei che ti importasse, vorrei solo che fossi lì
Now since my mother told me there’s no such thing as Santa Claus
Ora da quando mia madre mi ha detto che non esiste una cosa come Babbo Natale
has a let down been so blissful,
una delusione non è mai stata così beatificata
and its pain, so pure and raw.
e il suo dolore, così pure e crudo
but now, of course, there’s you to add,
ma ora, ovviamente, ci sei tu da aggiungere
to the very top of that sorry list
all’apice della mia lista di scuse
except even as you are real,
eccetto il fatto che anche se sei reale
I know in fact, you don’t exist
io so che in realtà non esisti
and that tonight you’re out there somewhere
e che stanotte tu sei fuori da qualche parte
and that you couldn’t even pretend to care
e che non potresti nemmeno fingere di importartene
could not pretend to care.
non potresti fingere di importartene
and if you tell one more lie to me, I swear to God you’ll turn to stone
e se mi dici un’altra bugia, ti giuro su Dio che ti trasformerai in pietra
and if you tell one more lie to me, prepare to get your cover blown
e se mi dici un’altra bugia, preparati a farti saltare la copertura
and if you still play with matches, you’re probably there to catch ablaze
e se giochi ancora con il fuoco, probabilmente sarai lì in fiamme
and I might just pass you on the street with an empty urge to fan the flames.
ed io potrei passare accanto a te per strada con un bisogno vuoto di alimentare le fiamme
some singers lose priority at the drop of a dime
alcuni cantanti perdono priorità in un batter d’occhio
mm, oh well, fuck it, better luck next time.
mm, oh, bene, fanculo, avrò più fortuna la prossima volta
doesn’t heal, no time.
non guarisce, no il tempo
It does not heal
non guarisce
When I sat down to write this, you were not even on my mind
Quando mi sono seduto per scrivere questo, tu non eri nemmeno nella mia mente
but as it started racing, you wrote yourself in every line
ma appena ho iniziato, tu ti scrivevi da sola in ogni rigo
and I kissed you with my eyes closed, and when I woke there was not a trace
e ti ho baciata con gli occhi chiusi, e quando mi sono svegliato non c’era traccia
if your nightmare ever run dry, I’ll lend you mine to take their place
se i tuoi incubi dovessero prosciugarsi, ti porgo i miei per prendere il loro posto
and I wish my tear could take flight, and haunt you as you sleep in bed
e vorrei che le mie lacrime potessero volare, e perseguitarti mentre dormi nel letto
and swallow your entire room, until the stuff fills up your breath
e farti ingoiare tutta la tua stanza, finché tutte le cose non riempiono il tuo respiro
you’re a liar and a drunk,
sei una bugiarda e ubriaca
and so am I, I know it’s true
lo sono anche io, lo so è vero
but the part that really kills me
ma la parte che davvero mi uccide
it is clear that I’m not over you
è chiaro che non ti ho dimenticata
not over you, not over you.
non ti ho dimenticata, non ti ho dimenticata
it is so clear I’m not over you
è chiaro che non ti ho dimenticata
not over you, not over you,
non ti ho dimenticata, non ti ho dimenticata
why am I not over you?
perché non ti ho dimenticata?
I know you dont care, no, I know you dont care.
So che a te non importa, so che a te non importa
but I wish you would care, I just wish you were there.
ma vorrei che ti importasse, vorrei solo che fossi lì
I know you dont care, no, I know you dont care.
So che a te non importa, so che a te non importa
but I wish you would care, I just wish you were there.
ma vorrei che ti importasse, vorrei solo che fossi lì
