Cruel Heart

And I know that you don’t love me
The way it ought to be
Handing out affection
To everyone you meet
Sometimes I get this feeling
A twist around my heart
You can send me reeling
No one can make me part
I’m facing different mirrors
I’m longing to be free
But I’m shackled to your love
And these chains are holding me
Cruel heart
Yours or mine
Is love just an illusion
Or a trick of time?
If I put up resistance
Why push out in haste
The fences are all down
So I leave it up to fate
And I realise the danger
I’m putting myself in
No matter what will happen
The hazard’s still within
I’m flamed with pure desire
I’m longing to be free
Shackled to your love
These chains are holding me
Cruel heart
Yours or mine
Is love just an illusion
Or a trick of time?
Cruel heart
Yours or mine
Is love just an illusion
Or a trick of time?
Adrift upon the ocean, ocean
All I want is devotion, motion
Yeah
And I know that you don’t love me
The way it ought to be
Handing out affection
To everyone you meet
