[Verse 1]
I'm not gonna try to read your mind
But I think you should know
I won't fall apart
I'll be just fine
If you need to go
I'm not a fool
I can see it in your eyes
Don't laugh
Don't be cruel
And don't patronize
[Chorus]
Just love me cos you want to
And not because you wanna be kind
Give me something to hold on to
Cos otherwise you're wasting our time
And now the rest is up to you
Love me cos you want to
[Verse 2]
And if our time is up then it's OK
I'll move right along
You can try to bring back yesterday
But the feeling is gone
I'm not a fool
There's nowhere to hide
So play by the rules
And drop the disguise
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Getting colder
Like the weather
Will you be there
When the lights go out
Wanna hold ya
Make ya better
But the rain just keeps on falling down
[Chorus] x2
[Hook] x5
To have to be kind
Now don't you be kind
I'm not gonna try to read your mind
But I think you should know
I won't fall apart
I'll be just fine
If you need to go
I'm not a fool
I can see it in your eyes
Don't laugh
Don't be cruel
And don't patronize
[Chorus]
Just love me cos you want to
And not because you wanna be kind
Give me something to hold on to
Cos otherwise you're wasting our time
And now the rest is up to you
Love me cos you want to
[Verse 2]
And if our time is up then it's OK
I'll move right along
You can try to bring back yesterday
But the feeling is gone
I'm not a fool
There's nowhere to hide
So play by the rules
And drop the disguise
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Getting colder
Like the weather
Will you be there
When the lights go out
Wanna hold ya
Make ya better
But the rain just keeps on falling down
[Chorus] x2
[Hook] x5
To have to be kind
Now don't you be kind
