No one ever said I was a gullible girl

I don't believe everything 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



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



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 thisNo matter how we try, we grow

You're not such an innocent boyAnd 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



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...
