It hurts to be in love when the only one you love
Turns out to be someone who's not in love with you.
It hurts to love her so when deep down inside you know
She will never want you no matter what you do.
And so you cry a little bit.
(Hurts to be in love)
Oh, I die a little bit.
(Hurts to be in love)
Day and night, night and day,
It hurts to be in love this way.
How long can I exist wanting lips I've never kissed?
She gives all her kisses to everybody else.
She thinks I'm just a friend. Though it hurts I must pretend.
The only way to keep her is keep it to myself.
And so I cry a little bit.
(Hurts to be in love)
Oh, I die a little bit.
(Hurts to be in love)
Day and night, night and day,
It hurts to be in love this way.
And so I cry a little bit.
(Hurts to be in love)
Oh, I die a little bit.
(Hurts to be in love)
Day and night, night and day,
It hurts to be in love this way.
It hurts to be in love,
Day and night, night and day.
It hurts to be in love,
Night and day, day and night.
It hurts to be in love,
Day and night, night and day.
