[Verse 1]
Cruel, what a thing to do
I've been cruel to you such a long time
And how can I hide my shame?
'Cause there I go again at the wrong time
[Chorus]
And I know that it was just the fear of flying
And I know it's hard to keep myself from crying
But when my tears are washed away, you'll still be blind
Skin-diving for jewels
[Verse 2]
You were a shining pearl
In a broken shell under moonlight
And I was cruel
[Chorus]
And I know that it was just the fear of flying
And I know it's hard to keep myself from crying
But when my tears are washed away, you'll (I'll) still be blind
Skin-diving for jewels
[Verse 3]
Cruel, I've been such a fool
And I'll be missing you such a long time
I was cruel
