Too Tough

I know you think that I protest too much

I'm like a Diva with the tragic touch

But if I wanna hide from the pouring sun

It has to be alright

And I can have my pride, but I'll turn and run

When a fool would stand and fight

And if I try – hard enough

To do or die – and push and shove

I know that I would be too tough

Too tough to fall in love

With you

You've really gotten underneath my skin

Must have been easy, it was always thin

So if I wanna cry in the burning rain

Don't worry, I'll survive

But even when you're high, I can feel your pain

That's what I call being alive

So if I fall – I'll get back up

And there'll be tears – and blood and stuff

Still I stand tall – but not too tough

Too tough to fall in love

With you

And I can see your point of view

But I can't see a way to be tough too

Tough too

You know I hate it when you talk this way

'Cause you don't listen to a word you say

And it took a lot of time to grow your shell

Maybe enough's enough

And I could tell you why you should go to hell

But I don't want to be that tough

And if I try – hard enough

To do or die – and push and shove

I know that I would be too tough

Too tough to fall in love

With you
