| When the hurt comes |
| You close your eyes |
| As if to drown out the pain |
| You’re losing a piece of your soul |
| And you fight like a fool |
| To find it again |
| And turn out the lights, greet coldest of nights |
| The darkness holds you like a distant lover |
| When the hurt digs in that far |
| You scramble for who you are |
| Too scared to be alone, too scared to find another |
| I watched you grow |
| When as a wide eyed smiling girl |
| You thought all the world was beautiful |
| I watched you as you dance |
| So full of life, so full of chance |
| And hoped for you, I could be suitable |
| I watched you through the years |
| Watched your childhood disappear |
| My love so strong me |
| You were nineteen when you touched me |
| And my whole life rushed on by |
| Making love to you |
| Left me suspended in the air |
| Your first time your silence told me |
| You were scared |
| Three years fly by |
| They share love’s highs |
| And suffer through love’s lows |
| There was so much he did wrong |
| But he was too weak to |
| The tables have turned now |
| It’s her turn to grow |
| And she says, «No, I just can’t tell you |
| It’s easier to lie» |
| And I screamed, «Tell me, |
| Have you slept with him?» |
| She answered when she cried |
| When the hurt comes |
| You can’t block it |
| You can’t hide |
| I can’t chain you so I’ll let you go |
| If you find out all you need to know |
| You could come back |
| You could give me one more try |
| When the hurt comes |
| You close your eyes |
| As if to drown out the pain |
| You’re losing a piece of your soul |
| And you fight like a fool |
| To find it again |
| Well God, let me find her again |
