[Verse 1]
I love my baby, nothing else compares
It's something 'bout those brown eyes that leaves me full of tears, crying
All the world is crazy, but you're here
My baby made me realize that nothing else even matters
[Chorus]
Ooh, I love you so much it hurts
And I can't stop the tears, my baby's really here
Ooh, I love you so much it hurts
He showed me what my life was really worth
Down here on earth
And it hurts, it hurts, it hurts
I love you so much, I love you so much it hurts
[Verse 2]
For once in my life, I'm not alone anymore
See, my heart had a dream to be a part of a family
Yeah, it took some time but this moment
Was worth all the pain
He's living proof that dreams do come true
Look at you
[Chorus]
Ooh, I love you so much it hurts
And I can't stop the tears, my baby's really here
Ooh, I love you so much it hurts
He showed me what my life was really worth
Down here on earth
And it hurts, it hurts, it hurts
I love you so much, I love you so much it hurts, it hurts
Yeah, it hurts, yeah, it hurts
I love you so much, I love you so much it hurts
[Outro: Baby Pooks]
Mom, mommy
