Tell me what you're gonna do now
I'm always on the West side
If I see ya can we kick it again?
I know what you're going through now
You're always on your own time
Won't change but I gotta believe
Tell me what you're gonna do now
Won't put you on the outside
I was there when you needed a friend
Tell me what I gotta prove, ma
It's always gonna take time
Can't sit here waiting for you
Hey, you don't have to be so cruel (Cruel)
Hey, you don't have to be so cruel
I can if you ask me to
I won't always be this weak
Can't say you're waitin' on me
Tell me what you got to lose now
You say you've gotta take off
Have you got somewhere better to be?
I know what I gotta do now
It's time for me to break off
Can't change how you're feeling for me
I'm calling
Out, but you keep on pausing
Taste of your lips so haunting
Won't admit that you're falling, falling
Hey, you don't have to be so cruel (Cruel)
Hey, you don't have to be so cruel
I won't if you ask me to
I'm calling
Out, but you keep on pausing
Taste of your lips so haunting
Can't see the hurt you're causing
I'm holding on to the day you're all in
I'll take a chance, so sorry
Can't admit that I'm falling
Oh by the way do you remember
It's not who you are but where you've been
I'll run away till you remember
Cause I'm flyin' high, no time to spare
You don't have to be
You don't have to be
You don't have to be
You don't have to be
You don't have to be
You don't have to be
I'm calling
Out, but you keep on pausing
Taste of your lips so haunting
Won't admit that you're falling, falling
Hey, you don't have to be so cruel (Cruel)
Hey, you don't have to be so cruel
I can if you ask me to
Hey, you don't have to be so cruel (Cruel)
Hey, you don't have to be so cruel
I can if you ask me to
I'm calling
Out, but you keep on pausing
Taste of your lips so haunting
Can't see the hurt you're causing
I'm holding on to the day you're all in
I'll take a chance, so sorry
Can't admit that
You're falling, falling
