You know i can be found sitting home all alone
If you can't come around at least please telephone
Dont be cruel to a heart that's true
Baby, if i made you mad for something i might have said
Please, let's forget the 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
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
No, don't be cruel to a heart that's true
I don't want no other love
Oh baby it's just you i'm thinking of
