Cruel You Lyrics by Shoes

Present Tense

0

Baby when you dialed the telephone
I thought you're gonna call your mother dear
Instead you called him over here
And I didn't know what to do, ooh
Baby when you opened the window
I thought that you'd be getting some air to breathe
Instead you reached out for another need
And I didn't know what to do, ooh
Why do you lie
Why do you hold your head up high
So other eyes flashin' by see I'm not over you
Cruel you, you wasted my heart
Will I ever hear you say "I need you"
Baby when you dealt the final blow
I thought you'rе gonna pull me through all this mess
Instead I stood by hеlpless while you undressed
And I didn't know what to do, ooh
Baby when I pointed the gun at you
I thought that you'd be beggin' down on your knees
Instead you wouldn't even say please
And I didn't know what to do, ooh
Why do you lie
Why do you hold your head up high
So other eyes flashin' by see I'm not over you
Cruel you, you wasted my heart
Will I ever hear you say "I loved you"
Cruel you, cruel you, cruel you, cruel you
Cruel you, cruel you, cruel you, cruel you
