No one ever said I was a gullible girl I don't believe everything that I'm told I've been around and I know the ropes And I won't get fooled again I don't believe in no fairy tales I don't believe in the man in the moon And no pot of gold or anything else Is waiting at the rainbow's end I got no illusions now, I guess I lost them long ago You're not gonna get me with this, cause I already know Baby there's no such thing Baby it just ain't true And there's no such thing as safe s** When it comes to loving you There's always the danger of losing control And of breaking my heart and exposing my soul There's just no protection from that look in your eyes Or the touch of your hands when I break down and cry There's always the risk of surrendering more Than I ever intended to do And there's no such thing as safe s** When it comes to loving you I don't believe in the boogie man I don't believe in no pie in the sky You can wish upon a star until the stars are gone That doesn't mean it's really so There's no such thing as a Santa Claus There's no such thing as getting money for nothing And no yellow brick road is gonna take you there Wherever you've been trying to go We'll never be as young as this No matter how we try, we grow You're not such an innocent boy And I already know Baby there's no such thing Baby it just ain't true And there's no such thing as safe s** When it comes to loving you There's always the danger of giving too much Love is often a drug Love is often a crutch There's no guarantee I can handle it all The higher the climb The longer the fall There's always the danger of losing control And of breaking my heart and exposing my soul There's just no protection from that look in your eyes Or the touch of your hands when I break down and cry There's always the risk of surrendering more Than I ever intended to do And there's no such thing as safe s** When it comes to loving you
