It Hurts Me So Much
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.
Baby, baby, baby
You know I love you
And I know you could love me too, ooh
But you can't let yourself be unfaithful, ooh
You can't let yourself be untrue
If I'm not, it would make just a little bit of difference now
I'd gladly get down on my knees, yes, I would, ooh
But I might as well make myself face it
I know that you'd never, you never belonged to me
That's why it hurts me so much
It hurts me so much
To be unable to look
When you know that you can't touch, oh
Oh, the best thing to do
Is to try to be stronger
Push my heart out of the way
I can't let it
It can't go on any longer
Oh, the game, the game is getting too rough
Too rough to play
That's why it hurts me so much
It hurts me so much
It hurts me so much
No, don't let it hurt me so much
It hurts
