[Verse 1]
Sometimes love can feel like
The closest thing to heaven
Sometimes love can feel like
You've been run over by a car, mhm
[Pre-Chorus]
It's the strangest thing I know
Makes you feel warm when you feel cold
And if you're down on happiness
You better get used to the taste of sadness
'Cause love will sure hurt sometimes
Oh, everybody sings
[Chorus]
Love hurts and it don't
Love don't always work
Love ain't all it seems
It feels good but it stings
Love hurts and it don't
(Oh-ho, mhm, hm, hm)
[Verse 2]
Some people will tell you
It's thе best thing for the heart, yеs, they will, uh-huh
But what they fail to tell you
It can tear your life apart, oh-ho
[Pre-Chorus]
But you know, it's as sweet as a summer rain
It can hit you like a train
And fill your heart with pain, oh, yes, it can
Fill your heart with pain
Oh, sing the song, sing the song
[Chorus]
Love hurts and it don't (It don't)
Love don't always work
Love ain't all it seems (Love ain't all it seems)
It feels good but it stings
(Ooh, it feels so good but it stings)
Love hurts and it don't
(And it don't, oh, mhm, don't you know, don't you know)
[Bridge]
Yeah, you know that you're alive
'Cause you feel so much pain
When you feel you can't survive
Yet you make it anyway
When it feels too good to stop
But it hurts too much to stay
Then you know, then you know
You've gotta know love hurts and it don't
[Chorus]
Love hurts and it don't (And it don't)
Love don't always work (Don't always work)
Love ain't all it seems (All it seems)
It feels good but it stings
(It seems so good but it stings)
Love hurts and it don't
[Outro]
Love hurts and it don't
Love hurts and it don't
