Donna Summer - Love's Unkind Lyrics

Well I see him every morning in the schoolyard when the schoolbell 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 that he'd 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, how I love him, 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 alive, 'cause you may find love's unkind.

Love's unkind, love's unkind, love's unkind, love's unkind
'Cause he's not mine

Oh, Why did I have to love him so, why did I have to love him so
