Love Is a Hurting Thing

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 is a hurtin' thing
Oh, love is a hurtin' thing [fade]
