Each girl thinks she will be the one To love you despite all you do wrong Each time you make the same mistakes But so does she You think that to be a good person Means merely causing no one harm But since we're all responsible for ourselves It's impossible to fail My heart is wide open and I'll never give up hoping Not for your love, just for you to grow up Now there's one more thing you need to know Before the final curtains close It is cruel to look into a girl's eyes that way you looked in mine Unless you want her to fall in love with you It is cruel to want her to fall in love If you can't love her too (I know you can't love me too) Each girl I've told has been unsurprised They learned as I to avoid your eyes Now only knowing I can never win Would I fall in them again It is cruel to look into a girl's eyes that way you looked in mine Unless you want her to fall in love with you It is cruel to want her to fall in love If you can't love her too (I know you can't love any of us too)
