Why do we hurt the ones we love?


Hurt me Hurt You

I tried so hard to remain alone
I didn't want to be hurt so I tried so hard to keep my heart made of stone

but then you walked into my life
out of the night came this bright shining light

I remember your smile and laugh
I remember thinking please don't stay
because I found it so difficult to look away

we walked home under the moon
we held hands and sang faint soft tunes
and I remember all I could think was that your love will one day leave me a bruise

I couldn't stop what you started
I didn't want it to end
but then you told me you had another lover and playing games with hearts was just a trend

I tried to keep you away
but you kept coming back to see me day after day
so in the end I embraced you and said Ok

then I saw you with the other man
you gave me a scared look as if to say go away
only to call me the next day with promises that you would stay

but I couldn't return your calls and accept you back
you hurt me so much I can't keep on track

I wonder if your thinking about me right now tonight
I wonder if your thinking about me under the soft moonlight

tomorrow if you call I'll accept
I'll put up with the pain and lies and I wont protest

because only in your arms do I feel at my best
