Cruel To Be Kind - Letters To Cleo

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 bona fide

But that don't coincide

With the things that you're doing

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 you 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

To 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 you gotta be cruel to be kind

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Well I do my best to understand dear

But you still mystify 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 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 gotta be cruel to be kind

Cruel to be kind it's a very very

Very good sign

Cruel to be kind means that I love you

Baby you gotta be cruel to be kind
