Lyric She Cares

Written by Tommy Shaw

I tried to be the perfect soldier
I tried to be what everyone said was expected
Somehow I was selected
Well, my hands were steady, my aim was true
But deep inside of my heart I knew
That I lacked the will
I just couldn t shoot to kill

And still she treats me like a human
She says she ll still be there
I may not be a hero, but I ll be there
Because I know she cares

I worked hard to be the greatest lover
I wanted to be sure that I was her only one
That s how I thought it was done
But I went too far, assumed too much
The need to feel a younger one s touch
Seemed important then
Oh what a fool I ve been

And still she treats me like a human (like a human)
She says she ll still be there (that she ll be there)
I don t quite understand it, she s been too fair
Cause somehow she cares

I guess that s the way it goes, the way that it goes
And nobody knows what compels her
She s seen my highs and lows and never let go

Oh yes she treats me like a human (like a human)
She says she ll still be there (that she ll be there)
I don t quite understand it, she s been too fair
Cause somehow she cares

I guess that s the way it goes, the way that it goes
And nobody knows what compels her
She s seen my highs and lows and never let go

And when the world has turned its back on me
I won t have to feel alone
Cause I know she cares
