I Don't Care At All

You play to love me,
I play you think that I love you,
by searching an alibi
you give me a passion that I don't expect.

And I don't care at all,
you play to cheat me,
I play you think that I believe you,
I listen to your nonsenses
about love and desire.

And I don't care at all
if you are laughing or dreaming,
if you are saying or doing something.
And I don't care at all,
as much as I put my mind to it,
I am playing and I don't care at all.

You play to have me,
I play you think that you have me
serene and confident,
I invent words that hurts you.

And I don't care at all,
you play to forget me,
I play you think that it matters me,
I know the game,
I can manage me in short distances.

  1. You play AT lovING me,
    I MAKE you think that I love you,
    by searching FOR an alibi
    you give me a passion that I don't expect.

    And I don't care at all,
    you play AT cheatING me,
    I MAKE you think that I believe you,
    I listen to your nonsensE
    about love and desire.

    And I don't care at all
    if you are laughing or dreaming,
    if you are saying or doing something.
    And I don't care at all,
    as much as I put my mind to it,
    I am playing and I don't care at all.

    You play AT havING me,
    I MAKE you think that you have me

  2. We say in Spanish: "yo hago que tu creas..."=I make you think..." but in this case the author wants to emphasize about she is playing really. How can you do this in English?

    I play around to make you think...
