Do You Really Want to Hurt Me Lyrics

[Intro]
Give me time to realise my crime
Let me love and steal
I have danced inside your eyes
How can I be real?

[Verse 1]
Do you really want to hurt me?
Do you really want to make me cry?
Precious kisses, words that burn me
Lovers never ask you why
In my heart, the fire's burning
Choose my colour, find a star
Precious people always tell me
That's a step, a step too far

[Chorus]
Do you really want to hurt me?
Do you really want to make me cry?
Do you really want to hurt me?
Do you really want to make me cry?

[Verse 2]
Words are few I have spoken
I could waste a thousand years
Wrapped in sorrow, words are token
Come inside and catch my tears
You've been talking, but believe me
If it's true, you do not know
This boy loves without a reason
I'm prepared to let you go

[Bridge]
If it's love you want from me
Then take it away
Everything's not what you see
It's over again

[Chorus]
Do you really want to hurt me?
Do you really want to make me cry?
Do you really want to hurt me?
Do you really want to make me cry?

[Chorus]
Do you really want to hurt me?
Do you really want to make me cry?
Do you really want to hurt me?
Do you really want to make me cry?
Do you really want to hurt me?
Do you really want to make me cry?

What have the artists said about this song?

Boy George shared in 2008:

Our first two singles failed. That single was our last chance. But I threatened to leave if (the label) released it. I didn’t think it was us; it wasn’t club music. It wouldn’t stand up to Spandau Ballet. But I was wrong. It was so personal in a way that our other songs w...
