I was so sure that we had a rapport
But I opened my mind and you closed the door;
By cold-blooded days in the heat and the haze
I saw the white light in a forest of grey For a moment I was happy
But the moment's gone, I sing a song of tough love
You keep on saying that you're sorry
But you're not giving back the hope you took
Tough love
I wish all this was just a nightmare
And I'll wake up now without your old tough love It's not like it's Christmas, there's a side that I'm missing
The light has burned out 'cause I should've just listened
And what if you changed and walked off with a stranger?
Don't think I could handle the pain For a moment I was happy
But the moment's gone, I sing a song of tough love
You keep on saying that you're sorry
But you're not giving back the hope you took
Tough love
I wish all this was just a nightmare
And I'll wake up now without your old tough love
