Why does your love
Hurt so much?
Why?
Why does your love
Hurt so much?
Don't know why
You know
I loved you baby
But all the while
You just betrayed me
In the world of a day
All the things
That you said were

Why does your love
Hurt so much?
Why?
Why does your love
Hurt so much?
Don't know why
You said our love
Was sacred
But you left me
Alone to make it
You want to come back
Again someday
But darling
Here's what I say
