The Hurt

THE HURT - Written by Carroll Bryant 

I looked into her eyes

And I thought that it was lust

But I guess I really did fall in love

Because when the morning came

And I woke up alone

Oh, the hurt was hurting too much

First time for lovers

Last time for friends

And I wonder if it’s ever gonna end

Because I’ll never forget

How our love making was

And the hurt is never anybody’s friend

The hurt really hurts when it hurts like it does

The pain feels like it will never go away

And I was the one who was to never fall in love

But I did and now I’m hurting today

I got out of bed

And walked to the window

And gazed upon a world moving fast

Shaking my head

As I turn to walk away

I wonder, how long will this last?

The hurt really hurts when it hurts like it does

The pain feels like it will never go away

And I was the one who was to never fall in love

But I did and now I’m hurting today

Love is never anything you can plan for

When it happens, it happens in the blink of a blood shot eye

Love is never anything a broken man can adore

When it happens, he’s left to wonder why

I looked into her eyes

And I thought that it was lust

But I guess I really did fall in love

Because when the morning came

And I woke up alone

Oh, the hurt was hurting too much

The hurt really hurts when it hurts like it does

The pain feels like it will never go away

And I was the one who was to never fall in love

But I did and now I’m hurting today

And I was the one who was to never fall in love

But I did … and now I’m hurting today
