LOVE IS A HURTIN' THING
Lou Rawls


For every little kiss there's a little teardrop 
For every single thrill there's another heartache 
The road is rough 
The going gets tough 

(1: Yes) love is a hurtin' thing 
Oh, love is a hurtin' thing 

When you're in my arms I'm a king on a throne 
But when we're apart I walk the streets alone 
One day happiness 
The next day, loneliness 

When love brings so much joy why must it bring such pain 
Guess it's a mystery that nobody can explain 

Maybe I'm a fool to keep on loving you 
'Cause there may come a time you'll break my heart in two 
But I want you so 
I want you though I know that 

Love
