Lyrics of I'd still want you

I could shame you 'til you hide your face
And drag you right down in disgrace
But what good would it do
I know i'd still want you

I could tell the world you're doin' wrong
That i was stringin' you along
And if it all were true
I know i'd still want you

This world with me might sympathize
When i got through with all my lies
But i'd be just as blue
'cause my heart would still want you
Cry, oh, lord

I could tell my friends i threw you down
And slander your name all over town
But what good would it do
I know i'd still want you

If i said i'm happy to be free
The only one i'd fool is me
Because it isn't true
I know i'd still want you

What's the use to say that you're no good
When i'd crawl back if i could
No matter what you do
I know i'd still want you
Cry, oh, lord

I could smile and say that i don't care
And then go home and pull my hair
But what good would it do
I know i'd still want you

I could say that someone put me wise
And get revenge by telling lies
But when i got all through
I know i'd still want you

If the things i said was to break your heart
I'd be the first to take your part
'cause if all these lies were true
I know i'd still want you
Cry, oh, lord
