It Only Hurts for a Little While
Anne Murray
It's all over town that we've parted,
And everyone knows that we're through;
They see me alone broken hearted
Crying the blues for you.
It only hurts for a little while,
That's what they tell me, that's what they say.
It only hurts for a little while
Then all your heartaches will pass away.
It's so easy to be smart with somebody else's heart
But I don't know where to start forgetting you
What can I do?
It only hurts for a little while
That's what they tell me, "Just wait and see."
But I will hurt, 'til you come back to me.
