It Hurts

It makes me laugh
When I think about us
The way we light up the way home
It's you for us
And one for all
It caught me in its ray
But it hurts to be here
It hurts to be here
It hurts to be here
When you're gone
Now we've got a sunny day
We earned this, every twinkle, every eye
But Monday I forget
Wednesday I just don't get
Thursday I remember and
Sunday I cry
Cause it hurts to be here
It hurts to be here
It hurts to be here
When you're gone
And it hurts to be here
It hurts to be here
It hurts to be here
When you're gone
Oh, oh
Caught me in its' ray
And I know I'd never go back
It's broken-hearted street
And a paranoid street lamp
My only precious thing I had has been broken
But I'm soulful and grateful and gleeful
Hey, hey yeah
Caught me in its' ray
