Lyrics
Well, I see him every morning
In the schoolyard 'fore the school bell rings
And when he passes in the hallway
Well, he doesn't seem to notice me
He's got a crush on my best friend
But she don't care
'Cause she loves someone else
I'm standing on the outside
Not the inside where I wanna be
Love's unkind
Love's unkind
Love's unkind
Love's unkind
'Cause he's not mine
Just the other day
I was praying he would give me a chance
Hoping he would choose me
For his partner for the high school dance
I was standing outside the class
But it wasn't me
But my best friend he asked
I went running back inside
Teary-eyed and left the two of them behind
Love's unkind
Love's unkind
Love's unkind
Love's unkind
'Cause he's not mine
Oh, I love him so
But I can't even let him know
'Cause he loves my best friend
But she don't care
She loves someone else
And I asked my mama
And she said, "Love's unkind
Love's so unkind"
She said, "Just keep it in mind
'Cause you may find
Love's unkind"
Love's unkind
Love's unkind
Love's unkind
Love's unkind
Why does life treat me so?
Why do I have to love him so?
