Cruel To Be Kind lyrics

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 do

and when I ask you

to be nice, you say

You've 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've 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

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

Oh, in the right measure

it's a very, very

very good sign

it means that I love ya

baby... you gotta be

cruel to be kind

Oh, in the right measure

if it's a very, very

very good sign

it means that I love ya

baby... you've gotta be

cruel to be kind

So happy to have discovered Lucky Voice. We'd never tried karaoke before, but this is so much fun! So many great songs and so easy to use. Love it!

Easy to set up, entertains the little ones by day and the adults by night.
