[Verse 1 : Jon B]
Sometimes love can feel
Like the closest thing to heaven
Sometimes love can feel
Like you've been run over by a car, yes it can
It's the strangest thing I know
Make you feel warm when you feel cold
And if you down on happiness
You better get used to the taste of sadness, oh
'Cause love can sure hurt sometimes, oh yeah
[Hook]
Love hurts and it don't
Love don't always work
Love ain't all it seems
It feels good but it stings
Love hurts and it don't
[Verse 2 : Jon B]
Some people will tell you
It's the best thing for the heart, yes they will
What they fail to tell you
It can tear your life apart, oh
But you know it's as sweet as a summer rain
But it can hit you like a train, fill your heart with pain
Fill your heart with pain
Ooh everybody sing, everybody sing
[Hook]
Love hurts and it don't
Love don't always work
Love ain't all it seems
It feels good but it stings
Love hurts and it don't
[Bridge]
When you know that you're alive 'cause you feel so much pain
When you feel you can't survive but you make it anyway
When it feels too good to stop but it hurts too much to stay
Then you know, yes you know you gotta know love hurts
It hurts and it don't
[Hook]
Love hurts and it don't
Love don't always work
Love ain't all it seems
It feels good but it stings
Love hurts and it don't
Love hurts and it don't
Love hurts and it don't
