PAIN GETS A LITTLE DEEPER, THE
(Daniels / Fletcher)


Darrow Fletcher - 1965





The pain just gets a little deeper
The pain just gets a little deeper
I can't do with you
But I just can't do without you
In this world of mine, I don't wanna doubt ya
What makes me feel this way
And ev'ry single night and all day
The pain just gets a little deeper, deeper

They all say that I'm too young
The feeling will soon pass
But how can they say these things
When they don't sit in your class
To see her every day
To pass her when I play
The pain just gets a little deeper, and oh yeah
The pain just gets a little deeper, deeper

Someday when I am grown
Well, maybe I'll understand
But now I only know that she's a girl
And I want to be her man
This is my story, so sad, but yet so true
If I were only older, I think I'd know just what to do
But now, all that pain just gets a little deeper
Deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper, deeper
The pain just gets a little deeper, oh yeah, yeah
But now the pain just gets a little deeper, deeper
Oh, the pain called love comin' into my heart
Burnin', tearin' me apart ........... FADE
