  • Cupid don't love me like he used to do
    'Cause I'm broken-hearted way too soon
    I let my guard down
    The devil's gone and left me a bruise, mmm
    Rocks at the bottom, will I try again?
    Romeo still lives in my head
    Thought I would settle down
    When happy ever after'd been said, mmm

    Six, five, four, three
    Too many times I wish I'd never cared
    Been torn and twisted, oh I swear
    Too many nights crying that it's not fair
    If I get hurt again
    I'd need a lifetime to repair
    I'd need a lifetime to repair
    I'd need a lifetime to repair

    They told me stories and they got me good
    Who's sayin' fairytales aren't true?
    If he saves me from the dragon
    Well for that lovin', I'd be a fool, mmm
    I'd overlook the stupid things he does
    Straight up forgive him when he's wrong
    When he's fallen off the wagon
    We'll still dance to our favourite slow song, mmm

    Six, five, four, three
    Too many times I wish I'd never cared
    Been torn and twisted, oh I swear
    Too many nights crying that it's not fair
    If I get hurt again
    I'd need a lifetime to repair
    I'd need a lifetime to repair
    I'd need a lifetime to repair

    They say that love is everywhere
    But it's a game of truth or dare
    Gimme that guarantee and I'll be there
    Heaven knows I tried my best
    Now I'm swimming in the sea of loneliness
    Wanna take that chance and wanna say yeah

    But too many times I wish I'd never cared
    Been torn and twisted, oh I swear
    Too many nights crying that it's not fair
    If I get hurt again
    I'd need a lifetime to repair
    I'd need a lifetime to repair
    I'd need a lifetime to repair Writer/s: Daniel Shah, Justus Nzeribe, Kylie Minogue, Steve McEwan
