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 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 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 and 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
