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....
