Every Lil' Bit Hurts
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Every little bit hurts,
Every little bit hurts...
Every night I cry,
Every night I sigh,
Every night I wonder why
You treat me cold,
Yet you won't let me go.
Every little hurt counts,
Every little hurt counts,
You say you're coming home,
Yet you never phone,
Leave me all alone,
My love is strong for you,
And I'd do wrong for you.
I can't take this loneliness you've given me.
I just can't go on giving my life away.
Oh, come back to me, (come back to me)
And I'll make you'll see, (I'll make you'll see)
That I can give you all the things that you wanted before,
If you will stay with me.
Every little bit hurts, (yeah)
Every little bit hurts (yeah)
To you I'm a toy and you're the boy,
Who has to say when I should play.
Yet you hurt me, desert me.
Oh, come back to me, (come back to me)
And I'll make you'll see, (I'll make you'll see)
That I can give you all the things that you wanted before,
If you will stay, stay with me.
oohh yeah
Every little bit hurts...
