Text: Gene Pitney. It Hurts To Be In Love.

It hurts to be in love when the only one you love
Turns out to be someone who's not in love with you
It hurts to love her so when deep down inside you know
She will never want you, no matter what you do

And so you cry a little bit
(Hurts to be in love)
Oh, you die a little bit
(Hurts to be in love)
Day and night, night and day
It hurts to be in love this way

How long can I exist wanting lips I've never kissed?
She gives all her kisses to somebody else
She thinks I'm just a friend, though it hurts I must pretend
The only way to keep her is to keep it to myself

And so I cry a little bit
(Hurts to be in love)
Oh, I die a little bit
(Hurts to be in love)
Day and night, night and day
It hurts to be in love this way

And so I cry a little bit
(Hurts to be in love)
Oh, I die a little bit
(Hurts to be in love)
Day and night, night and day
It hurts to be in love this way

It hurts to be in love
Day and night, night and day
It hurts to be in love
Night and day, day and night
It hurts to be in love, day and night
