Love's Rules: Drawing the Line to Tears

Lyrics

You think that love is just a fool's game

You believe that love is a foolish pursuit

I'm not so sure you may be right

I'm uncertain, but you might be correct

But every game has got its rules, baby

Every romantic endeavor has its guidelines

By which we judge the wrongs and rights

These rules determine what's wrong or right

Oh, yeah

Expressing agreement or emphasis


I think it's time

It's time for us to establish boundaries

For us to draw the line

Suggesting a need to end something

'Cause what gave you the right

Questioning the justification for causing pain

To make me cry?

Asking why you made me cry


Oh, lie, don't lie to me, baby

Discouraging dishonesty

I told you before, I'm drawing the line

Reiterating the establishment of boundaries

So cry, but don't cry to me, baby

Encouraging expression of emotions but not towards me

I told you before, you're wasting your time

Repeating that you're wasting your time


So now you look at me with sad eyes

Describing a hopeful, regretful look

And hoping that I'll hesitate, oh no

Expecting hesitation, but it won't happen

But now I've heard enough of your lies

Having heard enough lies

I'm telling you, you're a bit too late

Declaring it's too late for reconciliation

Oh yeah

Expressing agreement or emphasis


I think it's time

Reiterating the need for boundaries

For us to draw the line

Suggesting that causing tears is unjustified

'Cause what gave you the right

Questioning the right to make me cry

To make me cry?

Asking why you made me cry


Oh, lie, don't lie to me, baby

Discouraging dishonesty

I told you before, I'm drawing the line

Reiterating the establishment of boundaries

So cry, but don't cry to me, baby

Encouraging expression of emotions but not towards me

'Cause I told you before, you're wasting your time

Repeating that you're wasting your time


Don't cry to me, baby, no more

Advising not to cry to me anymore

Don't you cry to me, baby, no more

Repeating the advice not to cry to me

You think that I'm crazy

Perceiving that I may be considered crazy

Cry to me, baby, no more

Advising not to cry to me anymore

No more

No more

Oh, lie, don't lie to me, baby

Encouraging expression of emotions but not towards me

'Cause I told you before, you're wasting your time

Repeating that you're wasting your time


Don't cry to me, baby

Advising not to cry to me anymore

Cry to me, baby, no more

Encouraging crying, but not directed at me

Don't cry to me, baby

Advising not to cry to me anymore

Think that I'm crazy

Believing that I may be perceived as crazy

But no more

No more
