We've traded places times before

We were built for making love and not for war

I'm screaming fire! Fire!

Watching from the door

I'm feeling burnt clean, under your eyes

Putting me out

Ooh ooh, baby don't hurt no more

Ooh ooh, keep from crying

Ooh ooh, baby don't hurt no more

Ooh ooh, ooh baby don't hurt no more

And I feel it go

What we held so slow

Goes so quickly

And I need to know

All I need to know

Is the pain of lying

It's just a little too much on my mind, this time

It's just a little too much

On my mind

And I'm begging you please, singing

Ooh ooh, baby don't hurt no more

Ooh ooh, keep from crying

Ooh ooh, baby don't hurt no more

Ooh ooh, ooh baby don't hurt no more

It's not for you, it's not for you

It's not for you

Ooh ooh, ooh baby don't hurt no more...

Ooh ooh, ooh baby don't hurt no more...
