Cruel Heart - Stripped

And I know that you don't love me
Or the way it ought to be
Handing out affection
To everyone you meet
Sometimes I get this feeling
A twist around my heart
You can send me reeling
No one can make me part

Facing different mirrors
I'm longing to be free
I'm shackled to your love
These chains are holding me

Yeah, cruel heart
Yours and mine
Is love just an illusion
Or a trick of time?

If I put up resistance
I'll rush out and hate
The fences are all down
So I leave it up to fate
And I realize the danger
I'm putting myself in
No matter what will happen
The hazard's still within

Aflame with pure desire
I'm longing to be free
I'm shackled to your love
These chains are holding me

Yeah, cruel heart
Yours and mine
Is love just an illusion
Or a trick of time?
Cruel heart
Yours and mine
Is love just an illusion
Or a trick of time?

Adrift upon the ocean, ocean
All I want is devotion, motion

And I know that you don't love me
Or the way it ought to be
So send your love affection
To everyone you meet
