Take a longing for the someone
To fill an empty space inside
Add moments of infatuation
Together with an empty pride

You play hide-and-seek upon the wall
While your heart is bouncing like a ball
And you think you’ve finally found it all
But you didn’t know
The gloom is taking away the glow

And it hurts you so
It hurts you so
And it hurts you so
It hurts you so
And it hurts you so
Lord, how it hurts you so

It’s my way of thinking (my way…thinking)
Is it right or is it wrong? (Is it wrong?)
But life has no color (Life…color)
No flavor, no soul
Ah-h-h-h

After having more than taste it
What regret for years that wasted
You’ve come from deep inside the row
And leave behind your empty show

So you tell yourself you’re not to blame
And that everything is still the same
There’s another face, another name
But you cry, you cry for the loneliness deep inside

And it hurts you so
It hurts you so
And it hurts you so
It hurts you so
And it hurts you so
Lord, how it hurts you so
And it hurts you so
It hurts you so
Lord, how it hurts you so
Oh, it hurts you so
And it hurts you so
Oh, it hurts you so
