It Only Hurts Me When I Cry Lyrics

It Only Hurts Me When I Cry

(Dwight Yoakam, Roger Miller)

 

 Chorus:

 The only time I feel the pain

 Is in the sunshine and the rain

 And I don't feel no hurt at all

 Unless you count when teardrops fall

 I tell the truth 'cept when I lie

 It only hurts me when I cry

 

 You couldn't tell it by this smile

 But my recovery took a while

 I worked for days and nights on end

 Just to walk and talk again

 You can't believe the time it takes

 To heal a heart once it breaks

 

 Chorus:

 The only time I feel the pain

 Is in the sunshine and the rain

 And I don't feel no hurt at all

 Unless you count when teardrops fall

 I tell the truth 'cept when I lie

 It only hurts me when I cry

 

 Oh maybe every now and then

 I have a small heartache again

 You wouldn't know to look at me

 There's tiny scars that you can't see

 It was a struggle to survive

 I'm probably lucky I'm alive

 

 Chorus:

 The only time I feel the pain

 Is in the sunshine and the rain

 And I don't feel no hurt at all

 Unless you count when teardrops fall

 I tell the truth 'cept when I lie

 It only hurts me when I cry

 

 I'll tell the truth 'cept when I lie

 It only hurts me when I cry
