Something that you said just stuck in my throat 
Made me fall apart and wrythe in pain 
Could it be the one I love could hate me so 
And will I find the love I lost again 

All in a day 
And the cruel things we say 
Love runs away 
If you don't 
Treat her gently, oh 

Sticks and stones will break my bones but now I know 
Now every dream we ever had has turned to stone 
You'll never know the rivers that I cried 

All in a day 
And the cruel things we say 
Love runs away 
If you don't 
Treat her gently, oh 

All in a day yeah 
And the cruel things we say 
Love runs away 
If you don't 
Treat her gently, oh
