I know that you think I protest too much   I'm like a diva with a tragic touch   But if I wanna hide from the pouring sun   It has to be alright   And I could have my pride but I'll try to run   When a fool would stand and fight      And if I try hard enough   To 'do or die' and push and shove   I know that I would be too tough   Too tough to fall in love with you      You've really gotten underneath my skin   Must have been easy, it was always thin   So if I wanna cry in the burning rain   Don't worry I'll survive   But even when you're high I can feel your pain   That's what I call being alive      So if I fall I'll get back up   And there'll be tears and blood and stuff   Still I stand tall and I'm too tough   Too tough to fall in love with you, with you      And I can see your point of view   But I can see a way to be tough too, tough too      You know I hate it when you talk this way   'Cause you don't listen to a word you say   And it took a lot of time to grow your shell   Maybe enough's enough   And I could tell you why you should go to hell   But I don't want to be that tough      So if I try hard enough   To 'do or die' and push and shove   I know that I would be too tough   Too tough to fall in love with you   With you, with you
