Don't Trust Love

Love is harder ended than started,
It can leave you empty-handed,
And broken-hearted.
Love is just a game someone has to lose.
If you're dealt the wrong card,
it can leave you with the blues.
Are you willing to take that chance?
Pass it up, or take the last dance?
***
Love isn't fair, love can be cruel.
It sucks you into its trap,
Then you become the tool.
Love can appear to be so much more,
But in reality, you're staring at a closed door.
Oh, baby... promise me.
That you won't trust love so easily.
***
I'm afraid that it will crush the spirit out of you,
Cause you've got a shine that's so bright, and so few.
Don't let the bad sneak itself into your heart...
Cause love is a road... you can walk it or depart.
Oh... stare that risk in the face.
Will you run from it, or chase?
***
Love isn't fair, love can be cruel.
It sucks you into it's trap,
Then you become the tool.
Love can appear to be so much more,
But in reality, you're staring at a closed door.
Oh, baby... promise me.
That you won't trust love so easily.
***
Everything will seem so right,
But you're holding on too tight.
Love will break free,
And leave you wondering.
Should I try again?
Would it be a happy end?
Walk away as enemies...
Or friends?
***
Love isn't fair, love can be cruel.
It sucks you into it's trap,
Then you become the tool.
Love can appear to be so much more,
But in reality, you're staring at a closed door.
Oh, baby... promise me.
That you won't trust love so easily.
