All your love you gave to me
Every piece of your heart you let me see
You filled my cup and I felt complete
Now you wake me up inside a bad dream
Late one night I was out drinking
Stepped inside a bar on your street and
Saw you there, what were you thinking?
Who is he and why are you dancing?
He touched you in the background
It broke me, I broke down
I didnt know love could hurt this way
I didnt know love!
I didnt know love!
He pulled you closer in the background
It broke me, I broke down
I didnt know love could hurt this way
How could you cheat on my heart?
I need to know!
Sh-sh-shivering cold, I brought you in
Said you wanted true love, you wanna to start again
I helped you fly, I set you free
Brought you back to life, how could you turn on me?
Late one night I was out drinking
Stepped inside a bar on your street and
Saw you there, what were you thinking?
Who is he and why are you dancing?
When he touched you in the background
It broke me, I broke down
I didnt know love could hurt this way
I didnt know love!
I didnt know love!
He pulled you closer, in the background
It broke me, I broke down
I didnt know love could hurt this way
How could you cheat on my heart?
I need to know!
I'm not your first, you're not my last
And though it hurts, I know that it will pass
I'm not your first, you're not my last
And though it hurts, I know that it will pass
When he touched you, in the background
It broke me, I broke down
I didn't know love could hurt this way
I didn't know love!
He pulled you closer, in the background
It broke me, I broke down
I didn't know love could hurt this way
How could you cheat on my heart?
I need to know!
