Do you remember the last time I said
If I ever thought of lying
I'd rather think of dying instead
And the last time you called me
To say we were through
How it took a million tears
Just to prove they all were for you
But it wouldn't have made any difference,
If you loved me
How could you love me
When it wouldn't have made any difference,
If you loved me
You just did not love me
'Cause I know of hundreds of times I could be
In the most unfaithful arms
That you always picture me
Though I can't always show proof I was true
No one else could change my mind
Or stop me coming home to you
But it wouldn't have made any difference,
If you loved me
How could you love me
When it wouldn't have made any difference,
If you loved me
You just did not love me
Enough to believe me
Enough not to leave me
Enough not to look for
A reason to be unhappy with me
And make me regret ever wanting you
It wouldn't have made any difference
Wouldn't have made any difference
If I ever thought of lying
I'd rather think of dying instead
And the last time you called me
To say we were through
How it took a million tears
Just to prove they all were for you
But it wouldn't have made any difference,
If you loved me
How could you love me
When it wouldn't have made any difference,
If you loved me
You just did not love me
'Cause I know of hundreds of times I could be
In the most unfaithful arms
That you always picture me
Though I can't always show proof I was true
No one else could change my mind
Or stop me coming home to you
But it wouldn't have made any difference,
If you loved me
How could you love me
When it wouldn't have made any difference,
If you loved me
You just did not love me
Enough to believe me
Enough not to leave me
Enough not to look for
A reason to be unhappy with me
And make me regret ever wanting you
It wouldn't have made any difference
Wouldn't have made any difference

"Remember when i told you i'd rather die than lie to you?"
"Remember the last time you almost left, how I cried my heart out for you?"
"And I won't deny that i've had opportunities to be unfaithful, and I can't prove I never was, but I'm telling you that I HAVEN'T cheated and no one could ever make me want to do that to you."
He's left finally (convinced she's sleepin' around) and she's realizing that he just didn't love her.
If he had - he would've believed her.
If he had - he wouldn't have left.
If he had - he wouldn't have constantly accused her of unfaithfulness.(which she is also realizing, that his accusations were really him looking for, "a reason to be unhappy with me".)
He's hurt her so bad, so deeply, that she can't believe she let her guard down and let him. To the point she regrets all her pathetic efforts to get him to stay.
I've had this CD for nearly a decade now and I could listen to it (this song in particular) for hours... Alison's voice is so absolutely beautiful.
