LYRICS
Am I suppose to close my eyes
and fall asleep when you’re not home?
Cause I wanna believe you
But I wonder if you’re all alone
These nights (these nights)
They take forever long
And I can’t breathe, I’m tired (I’m tired)
If I could do the things you do to me
You wouldn’t like that
No, no, no, you wouldn’t like that
Running ’round two, three o’clock in the morning
Hey, hey, you better believe me
Loving you ain’t easy
I’m halfway to losing my mind
Don’t be cruel
It’s taking all of me to love someone like you, you
Don’t be cruel
It’s taking all of me to love someone like you, oh
Trying to see a side of things
But you’ve been playing so unfair (ooh ooh)
Talking like you love me
But then go on like you just don’t care
Look out (look out), I come swinging around
Can’t keep me down
I love you (I love you)
But I’m losing myself, in this run around
Am I being jealous?
Are you being selfish?
Running ’round two, three o’clock in the morning
No no no
You better believe me, loving you ain’t easy
I’m halfway to losing my mind
Don’t be cruel
It’s taking all of me to love someone like you, you
Don’t be cruel
It’s taking all of me to love someone like you, oh baby
Don’t be cruel, baby (don’t be cruel)
No no no, don’t be cruel
Don’t be, don’t be, no
(Don’t be, no)
Don’t be, don’t be
Don’t be cruel
It’s taking all of me to love someone like you
Someone like you, yeah
You’re being, you’re being so cruel, baby
It’s taking all of me to love someone like you
Don’t be
You’re being so cruel
