Hurts So Good Lyrics

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
When I was a young boy
Said put away those young boy ways
Now that I'm getting older, so much older
I long for those young boy days
With a girl like you
With a girl like you
Lord knows there are things we can do, baby
Just me and you
Come on and make it a

[Chorus]
Hurt so good
Come on, baby, make it hurt so good
Sometimes love don't feel like it should
You make it hurt so good

[Verse 2]

Just trying to give myself a little bit of fun, yeah
You always look so inviting

Hey, baby, it's you

Sink your teeth right through my bones, baby
Let's see what we can do
Come on and make it a

[Chorus]
Hurt so good
Come on, baby, make it hurt so good
Sometimes love don't feel like it should
You make it

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

Come on, baby, make it hurt so good
Sometimes love don't feel like it should
You make it hurt so good
Hurt so good (Come on baby, now)
Come on, baby, make it hurt so good
Sometimes love don't feel like it should
You make it hurt so good

[Outro]
Hey, hey
