Cruel To Be Kind

Oh, I can't take another heartache

Though you say you're my friend

I've been there with sin

You say your love is bona fide

But that don't coincide

With the things that you do

And when I ask you to be nice

You say you 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

Gotta be cruel

Gotta be cruel to be kind

Well, I do my best to understand, dear

But you still mystify

And I wanna know why

I pick myself up off the ground

I have you knock me back down

Again and again

And when I ask you to explain

You say you 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

Gotta be cruel

Gotta be cruel to be kind

Baby

Gotta be cruel

Gotta be cruel to 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

Gotta be cruel

Gotta be cruel to be kind

You gotta be cruel to be kind

Gotta be cruel to be kind

You gotta be cruel to be kind

Gotta be cruel to be kind
