cruel to be kind
you've got to be cruel to be kind
sometimes it's the only way
love doesn't grow on trees
looking for that moment to seize
you can take it or leave it
it doesn't really matter to me
you're the one that's taking the risk
is going with a stranger so hard to resist
a fantasy that lodges in the mind
don't be blinded by a surface love

you've got to be cruel to be kind
even though you may think it's a crime
but you'll see that you were right one day
when a weight is removed from your life's in-tray
you've got to be cruel to be kind
sometimes it's the only way
you don't need a world that's full of misery
one slip-up is all that it takes

you've got to be cruel to be kind
although you might not at the moment see why
love doesn't grow on trees
sometimes it doesn't grow at all
you can take it or leave it
it doesn't really matter to me
love takes on all different guises
it pays to watch out for hidden surprises
if it's not working, finish now
another day it might be too late

you've got to be cruel to be kind
even though you may think it's a crime
but you'll see that you were right one day
when a weight is removed from your life's in-tray
you've got to be cruel to be kind
sometimes it's the only way
you don't need a world that's full of misery
one slip-up is all that it takes
