Standard (EADGBE)

No one ever said I was a gullible girl

I don't believe every-thing that I'm told

I've been around and I know the ropes

 And I won't get fooled again

I don't believe in no fairy tales

I don't believe in the man in the moon

 And no pot of gold or anything else

 Is waiting at the rainbow's end

I got no illusions now, I guess I lost them long ago

You're not gonna get me with this, cause I already know

 Baby there's no such thing

 Baby it just ain't true

 And there's no such thing as safe sex

 When it comes to loving you

 When it comes to loving you

 There's always the danger of losing control

 And of breaking my heart and exposing my soul

 There's just no protection from that look in your eyes

 Or the touch of your hands when I break down and cry

 There's always the risk of surrendering more

 Than I ever intended to do

 And there's no such thing as safe sex

 When it comes to loving you

 When it comes to loving you

I don't believe in the boogie man

I don't believe in no pie in the sky

 You can wish upon a star until the stars are gone

That doesn't mean it's really so

There's no such thing as a Santa Claus

There's no such thing as getting money for nothing

 And no yellow brick road is gonna take you there

 Wherever you've been trying to go

We'll never be as young as this

 No matter how we try, we grow

You're not such an innocent boy

 And I already know

 Baby there's no such thing

 Baby it just ain't true

 And there's no such thing as safe sex

 When it comes to loving you

 When it comes to loving you

 There's always the danger of giving too much

 Love is often a drug

 Love is often a crutch

 There's no guarantee I can handle it all

 The higher the climb

 The longer the fall

 There's always the danger of losing control

 And of breaking my heart and exposing my soul

 There's just no protection from that look in your eyes

 Or the touch of your hands when I break down and cry

 There's always the risk of surrendering more

 Than I ever intended to do

 And there's no such thing as safe sex

 When it comes to loving you

 When it comes to loving you
