I don't know why we act like that
You hurt me, I only hurt you back
I can't believe how carelessly we say those things
That put our love in danger
You wouldn't say that to a stranger
We hurt the ones we love
When we say those words in anger
Do we ever make it up
We say what we don't mean
And then we say we're sorry later
But you wouldn't say that to a stranger
Last night there was over in the air
Today it's gone just like it was never there
And I don't know where those hateful words come from
It goes against our nature
You wouldn't say that to a stranger
We hurt the ones we love
When we say those words in anger
Do we ever make it up
We say what we don't mean
And then we say we're sorry later
But you wouldn't say that to a stranger
Let's pretend that we just met
And we said nothing we regret
We say what we don't mean
And then we say we're sorry later
But you wouldn't say that to a stranger
