It Hurts

It hurts to give your heart to someone you love And not to receive it in return It hurts to give all your love, And not to get it back It hurts just to want a kiss, And not to be kissed back It hurts to want romance, and all you get is divorce It’s hard to get a cuddle, when seated on different chairs It hurts to feel in the present but only be in the past It hurts I want to give so much, Even though I’m given so little It’s hard to go to bed at night, And even worse to sleep alone It hurts to smell your sweet perfume, but yet so far away on the next pillow It also hurts to know that time and lives are both so short And even harder to know that my love for you it hurts I T H U R T S
