Johnny Van Zant - Love Can Be So Cruel lyrics

(Johnny Van Zant - Robert Paul - Jesse Harms)

You look at me with an empty stare

Where love once was, now nothing is there

You once lived for me, but now you don't care

If love is war, baby, nothing's fair.

Our last embrace was a slap in the face

You left me with a hunger thai time won't erase

I believed in you, you were the only one

Lookin' back I was better off playing with a loaded gun.

Love can be so cruel

Love can take you for a fool

Love can be blind, if you think love is true

It'll open your eyes, oh baby

Love can be so cruel, love can be cruel.

Two different minds look through two sets of eyes

And two different hearts, living two separate lives

We just can't agree so we stop asking why

'Cause sometimes the truth hurts more than the lie.

It's over now and we can't pretend (can't pretend)

Same thing that made us happy

Makes us cry in the end.

Love can be so cruel

Love can take you for a fool

Love can be blind, if you think love is true

It'll open your eyes, oh baby

Love can be so cruel, there ain't no rules

Love can be cruel.

And if the rain starts comin' down

Let it fall, just let it fall

'Cause it's a whole lot better to have been in love

Than to have never been in love at all.

Love can take you for a fool

Love can be blind, if you think love is true

It'll open your eyes, oh baby

Love can be so cruel, love can be cruel...
