Lyrics

I needed time to realize my crime It won't let me love and steal I did dances inside my mind Now, how can I be real? Do you really wanna hurt me? Do you really wanna make me cry? No, I don't really wanna hurt you Then lovers always asked me Why, why, why, why? In my mind, my memory's burning What's your favorite color of your favorite car? I took a step The step was learning that that's a step beyond a step too far Do you really wanna hurt me? Do you really wanna make me cry? No, I don't really wanna hurt you I told the truth, but it was still a lie Lie, lie Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh The words are few, some are unspoken I could sleep for a thousand years Man of sorrows word unbroken His sweat like blood, came down like tears I've been talking, but believe me I know that it's true Now that there's no more, I don't know I'm in love and love's the reason I'm not prepared to let you let me go So, if it's love you want (if it's love you want) Then take all of me (then take all of me) It's this love I want (this love) I can finally see Do you really wanna hurt me? Do you really wanna make me cry? No, I don't really wanna hurt you Then lovers always asked me, why, why, why, why, why, why, why? Do I really wanna hurt you? Do I really wanna make you cry? Yes, I suppose, I wanna hurt you You told the truth, but it was still a lie Do you, do you wanna Do you really wanna hurt me?
