Lyrics

You know I can be found

Sitting home all alone

If you can't come around

At least please telephone

Don't be cruel to a heart that's true


Baby, if I made you mad

For something I might have said

Please, let's forget my past

The future looks bright ahead

Don't be cruel to a heart that's true

I don't want no other love

Baby it's just you I'm thinking of, mmh


Don't stop thinking of me

Don't make me feel this way

Come on over here and love me

You know what I want you to say

Don't be cruel to a heart that's true

Why should we be apart?

I really love you baby, cross my heart


Let's walk up to the preacher

And let us say I do

Then you'll know you'll have me

And I'll know that I'll have you

Don't be cruel to a heart that's true

I don't want no other love

Baby it's just you I'm thinking of


Don't be cruel to a heart that's true

Don't be cruel to a heart that's true

I don't want no other love

Baby it's just you I'm thinking of
