You gotta be rough, you gotta be tough
If you're gonna fall in love these days
You gotta keep an eye open all the time
Or you'll get your heart broke along the way

These days, too many lovers
These days, not enough love
These days, so much danger to be aware of
Games and lies, lies and games
Made up faces with counterfeit names
Too many lovers
Not enough love these days

It's gonna take time if you're gonna find
The perfect kind of love that you dream about
It's out there on the street, but everyone you meet
Won't always tell the truth, so you'd better watch out

These days, too many lovers
These days, not enough love
These days, so much danger to be aware of
Games and lies, lies and games
Made up faces with counterfeit names
Too many lovers
Not enough love these days

Each night, all night
It's a brand new dance
And love, your love
True love is bound to chance
There's too many lies

You gotta be rough, you gotta be tough
If you're gonna fall in love these days
You gotta keep an eye open all the time
Or you'll get your heart broke along the way

These days, too many lovers
These days, not enough love
These days, so much danger to be aware of
Games and lies, lies and games
Made up faces with counterfeit names
Too many lovers
Not enough love these days

Too many lovers
Not enough love these days
Too many lovers
Not enough love these days
