Why Do We Hurt the Ones We Love

She kept waiting for him to call

Believing she did something wrong

Talking dirty with him

Trying to hide she wasn't strong

Hurting inside, but walking tall

Why do we hurt the ones we love?

Why do we hurt the ones we love?

Can you see me acting crazy

All in the name of you?

Writing letters, trying to break free

'Cause I can't get over you

Asking questions when I know the answers

This is over

I don't want to let go

So I show up at your door

Why do we hurt the ones we love?

Why do I hurt you?

Why do we hurt the ones we love?

Why do you hurt me?

I could have anyone

But all I want is you

Oh, you know it's true, oh

I pick a fight with you

So you can feel my pain

But this is getting old

Life without you here

Smoking in my kitchen

It feels so all alone

Why do we hurt the ones we love?

Why do I hurt you?

Why do we hurt the ones we love?

Oh, I loved you

I keep chasing you

Not what a woman should do, oh

Why do we hurt the ones we love?

Why did I hurt you? Oh no no

Why do we hurt the ones we love?

Oh, I love you, I love you

I could have anyone

But all I want is you
