I gave you up, I let you go
I gave you up, I let you go
I've been thinking twice
Thought you should know
I gave you all I had ’til I was broke
But new lovers, new lives start feeling old
I know it is typical
I was change, changing my mind
I know, in effect, I called to see if she's around
But am I wrong to want you?
Am I cruel to care?
For a moment, I could hold you
I could take you there
I've been looking for whatever remedy
But jealousy is getting the best of me
So am I wrong to want you?
Am I cruel to care?
Am I cruel to care?
Now she’s sleeping in your bed
Same pillow where I would rest my head
And talk you through the night, your dream, and making plans
If she's the one, I won't stand in your way, your way
And I know it's so typical
I was change, changing my mind
I know, in effect, I called to see if she's around
But am I wrong to want you?
Am I cruel to care?
For a moment, I could hold you
I could take you there
I've been looking for whatever remedy
But jealousy's getting the best of me
So am I wrong to want you?
Am I cruel to care?
Now am I cruel to care?
Oh, cruel to care
