Reflecting on a past relationship and understanding that you gave that person up, but are now regretting that decision since they are with someone new. She asks herself is it cruel to care and is it wrong to want them
[Intro]
I gave you up, I let you go
[Verse 1]
I gave you up, I let you go
I've been thinking twice
Thought you should know
I gave you all I had ’til I was broke
But new lovers, new lives start feeling old
[Pre-Chorus]
I know it is typical
I was change, changing my mind
I know, in effect, I called to see if she's around
[Chorus]
But am I wrong to want you?
Am I cruel to care?
For a moment, I could hold you
I could take you there
I've been looking for whatever remedy
But jealousy is getting the best of me
So am I wrong to want you?
Am I cruel to care?
Am I cruel to care? Mmh
[Verse 2]
Now she’s sleeping in your bed
Same pillow where I would rest my head
And talk you through the night, your dream, and making plans
If she's the one, I won't stand in your way, your way
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know it's so typical
I was change, changing my mind
I know, in effect, I called to see if she's around
[Chorus]
But am I wrong to want you?
Am I cruel to care?
For a moment, I could hold you
I could take you there
I've been looking for whatever remedy
But jealousy's getting the best of me
So am I wrong to want you?
Am I cruel to care?
Now am I cruel to care?
Oh, cruel to care
