Does It Hurt?

[Verse 1]
Does it hurt to be the one that they all need
Always the teacher, never the student
Always the rock in stormy seas?
Does it hurt to watch as they move on with their lives?
You say you're happy seeing them happy from the side

[Verse 2]
Does it hurt to feel it all a little deeper?
Don't be a burden, don't be a hassle
Don't let them sit beneath your features
Does it hurt to think that they'll never love you too
Not in the way thеy do? So, tell me, does it hurt?

[Chorus]
But, oh, what a bеautiful night to be here on my own
And I could say that I'm fine, but I'm not no more
'Cause I'm on the outside, looking in, from out in the cold
I love you, but there's only so far that kind of love goes
'Cause it hurts when I'm alone

[Verse 3]
So I hide the way I feel forever
Still in a freefall, hoping someone catches me and makes it better
But they won't
'Cause I just smile but never tell
Being their answer, needing an answer for myself (Self)

[Chorus]
But, oh, what a beautiful night to be here on my own (Here on my own)
And I could say that I'm fine, but I'm not no more (Not no more)
'Cause I'm on the outside, looking in, from out in the cold
(I love you) I love you, but there's only so far that kind of love goes
'Cause it hurts when I'm alone (Ahh)

[Bridge]
And it hurts when no one calls (Ahh)
And I've got nowhere to go (Ahh)
And no one left who knows anything about me
'Cause I don't cross the boundaries
Or see the other side
'Cause all I do is lie

[Chorus]
But, oh, what a beautiful night to be here on my own
Maybe I'll just say that I'm fine, 'cause it's all I know
But I'm on the outside, looking in, from out in the cold
(I love you) I love you, but there's only so far that kind of love goes

[Outro]
Love goes, oh, no
There's only so far that kind of love goes
Love goes, ooh, yeah
There's only so far that kind of love goes
'Cause it hurts when I'm alone
