Sometimes It’s Meant To Hurt

Lifted from the shadows like a child, lost in a game of hide and seek
You came to me one night, from another life, a love I’d yet to meet
Nothing much to say, but it was fun to play the ‘who are you, where have you been?’
By the time the sun rose and I had to let you go, we’d fallen sweetly in

This we know, this we’ll always know
But sometimes it’s meant, sometimes it’s meant, sometimes it’s meant to hurt

Lifted from the seabed like a pearl, in your palm I shine
As with any brightest star, we take the time, we travel far
And through the dawn we’re waiting for the night

This we know, this we’ll always know
But sometimes it’s meant, sometimes it’s meant, sometimes it’s meant to hurt

Lifted from the ground like a kite, both wind and string we need
No doubt there will come a time we’ll let the whole damn coil unwind
And set those pretty colours free
Until then my dear I’ll let you disappear, you can send affections from afar
And maybe in our deepest dreams where only sweetest secrets keep
I’ll let you know how loved you really are

This we know, this we’ll always know
But sometimes it’s meant, sometimes it’s meant, sometimes it’s meant to hurt

Oh sometimes it’s meant, sometimes it’s meant, oh sometimes it’s meant to hurt
