Cruel Songtext
von Joe Lynn Turner

Darkness surrounds us, we fall in the arms of the night
You felt so warm, but you′re cold in the morning light

You said you loved me, I can't believe it′s real
I see you changing and I don't know what to feel
Hold me like a man, treat me like a fool

Cruel, your love is so cruel
Yeah, baby
Cruel, your love is so cruel

Whispers of love and your tender touch stole my heart (mmm)
Two perfect strangers so near, yet we're going too far (yeah)

I play the pawn in your masquerade
You took my love and you threw it all away
I don′t know why you treat me like you do


Cruel, your love is so cruel
To feel the way you do
Cruel, your love is so cruel

I′ve felt the pain of love once before
Been through the changes and I came back for more
I closed my eyes and I opened my heart
But now I'm alone in the dark (yeah)

There′s nothing left but your memory
You took the very heart and soul of me
I never knew that you'd break me in two

Cruel, your love is so cruel
To do the things you do
Cruel, your love is so cruel
To treat me like you do

Cruel, oh, yeah, no, no, no
(Cruel) Yeah, I don′t know why, treat me like a fool
Baby, I'm a man (cruel) and I′ve got my pride
You know you hurt me, yeah, hurt me deep inside
