Cruel to Be Kind

Oh, I can't take another heartache

Though you say you're my friend, I'm at my wits' end

You say your love is bonafide

But that don't coincide with the things that you do

And when I ask you to be nice

You say

You've gotta be cruel to be kind in the right measure

Cruel to be kind, it's a very good sign

Cruel to be kind means that I love you, baby

You've gotta be cruel to be kind

Well, I do my best to understand, dear

But you're still mystified and I wanna know why

I pick myself up off the ground

To have you knock me back down again and again

And when I ask you to explain

You say

You've gotta be cruel to be kind in the right measure

Cruel to be kind, it's a very good sign

Cruel to be kind means that I love you, baby

You've gotta be cruel to be kind

Well, I do my best to understand, dear

But you're still mystified and I wanna know why

I pick myself up off the ground

To have you knock me back down again and again

And when I ask you to explain

You say

You've gotta be cruel to be kind in the right measure

Cruel to be kind, it's a very good sign

Cruel to be kind means that I love you, baby

You've gotta be cruel to be kind

Cruel to be kind in the right measure

Cruel to be kind, it's a very good sign

Cruel to be kind means that I love you, baby

You've gotta be cruel to be kind

Cruel to be kind in the right measure

Cruel to be kind, it's a very good sign

Cruel to be kind means that I love you, baby

You've gotta be cruel to be kind

Cruel to be kind in the right measure

Cruel to be kind, it's a very good sign

Cruel to be kind means that I love you, baby

You've gotta be cruel to be kind
