Love Is A Hurtin’ Thing Lyrics

[Intro]
Hey, you out there!
Lend me your ear
I want rap to you for a little while
I wanna talk about being caught up
Right now, right now, right now, right, woah!
Come on, come on, come on!

[Verse 1]
For every little kiss, there's another teardrop
For every single thrill, there's another heartache
The road is rough (Oh)
The going gets tough

[Chorus]
Love is a hurtin' thing
Oh, love is a hurtin' thing

[Interlude 1]
Do you know why, baby
Cause I'm a witness to it
Yes, I am
Listen

[Verse 2]
When you're in my arms, I'm a king on a throne
Yet when we're apart, I walk the streets alone
One day, happiness (Oh)
The next day, loneliness

[Chorus]
Love is a hurtin' thing
Baby, baby, it's a hurtin' thing

[Bridge]
When love brings joy, why does it bring pain?
Guess it's a mystery nobody can explain

[Interlude 2]
Oh, baby, how could you tell them about it?
Here's my number, call me up now
608-5789, ooh, call me baby, ooh, do it now

[Verse 3]
Maybe I'm a fool to keep on loving you
'Cause there may come a time you'll break my heart in two
I love you so (Ooh)
I want you, though I know that

[Chorus]
Love is a hurtin' thing
Love, baby, is a hurtin' thing

[Outro]
Listen to me, baby
I wanna talk about love right now
Don't you know love?
I said love can go on
Yes, it can
Hurry!
Love, sometimes can make you do right
Mmmm, I can remember well
She used to hold me in her arms
She said "Johnny, I love you"
