Riccardo Cocciante
Love is Cruel
[Verse 1]
I remember clearly how our love had once begun
When I first met you
I still recall how we both said, "You are the one"
Our hearts were so true
We lived our lives from day to day, no worries, no concern
No inhibitions
Clinging on to our romance for which our hearts so yearned
One thought, one vision
Nothing or no one could come between us then
We were invincible
But somewhere along the way, somehow I lost my dеarest friend
And the pain's unbеarable
High as a mountain, our love's too tall
Was meant to be forever
After the rise so tragically now comes the fall
You said you'd leave me never
You and I had never thought that the day would come
When we would say goodbye and leave here one by one
I'm asking you for the very last time
[Chorus]
Please hold me, won't you let me stay one more night?
Before we say goodbye forever
I'll never love again the way I love you
Forget you? How could I ever
Love is cruel without you
[Verse 2]
High as a mountain, our love's too tall
Was meant to be forever
After the rise so tragically now comes the fall
You said you'd leave me never
You and I had never thought that the day would come
When we would say goodbye and leave here one by one
I'm asking you for the very last time
[Chorus]
Please hold me, won't you let me stay one more night?
Before we say goodbye forever
I'll never love again the way I love you
Forget you? How could I ever
Love is cruel without you
[Outro]
Oh, love is cruel
Oh, love is so cruel
