Cruel To Be Kind lyrics

(Dennis/Young)

Babe I`m sorry but I just can`t stand the pain
If you`re leaving baby,
Let me say one last thing
You tell me I don`t care
But you know it just ain`t true
I got news
That I`m still in love with you

Girl, haven`t you been around me
Long enough to know
Oh, that I need your love
And I won`t let go

Chorus
Oh, you don`t have to be cruel to be kind
You break my heart you hurt me so
Kick me out because I ain`t leaving
Oh, you don`t have to be cruel to be kind
I`m feeling that you got me wrong
All I want is you back where you belong

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Forget about the things
That we could and should have done
`Cause it`s not too late, no no
Ain`t the best still yet to come
What we have is a chance to start over
And make it anew
So trust what you feel
Don`t hide from what`s real
Every word I say is real

Girl, haven`t I told you this a thousand times before
Oh, that I don`t want you going through that door

Repeat Chorus

No contest
(I`m telling you yeah)
No question
(`Cause I need you)
Believe me, I ain`t leaving
No contest
(I`m telling you girl)
No question
(`Cause I need you, yeah)
Believe me, I ain`t leaving

You don`t have to be cruel to be kind
You break my heart you hurt me so
Kick me out because I ain`t leaving
Oh, why must you be cruel to be kind
I`m feeling that you got me wrong
All I want is you back yeah yeah

Repeat Chorus

Baby don`t do the things you do
Baby don`t hurt me like you do
Baby don`t hurt me, hurt me

Don`t go..........
