Love Is A Hurtin` Thing Lyrics

Love Is A Hurtin' Thing

 AL RAWLS

 (Raleigh / Linden)

 

 For every little kiss there's a little teardrop

 For every single thrill there's another heartache

 The road is rough

 The going gets tough

 

 [1: Yes] love is a hurtin' thing

 Oh, love is a hurtin' thing

 

 When you're in my arms I'm a king on a throne

 But when we're apart I walk the streets alone

 One day happiness

 The next day, loneliness

 

 When love brings so much joy why must it bring such pain

 Guess it's a mystery that nobody can explain

 

 Maybe I'm a fool to keep on loving you

 'Cause there may come a time you'll break my heart in two

 But I want you so

 I want you though I know that

 

 Love is a hurtin' thing

 Oh, love is a hurtin' thing [fade]
