If You Wanted to Hurt Me |
La la la la la la |
Hey now |
I’ve been waiting for you all my life |
Only to hear you tell me that you couldn’t be mine |
How we both lose and we pay the price |
You make it sound to me that, that you’re crucified |
Now my fleeting joy grows so dim |
As you turn away and run to him |
Makes me wonder what you mean when you say you’d stay |
If you only could |
That you must break my heart for my own good |
Makes me wonder how you’d treat me, baby |
If you wanted to hurt me, no, baby |
If you really wanted to hurt me, yeah |
No matter how I try, I may never find |
A single ray of hope in all your lies |
So I live in fear, my share of doubt |
You’re just another heartache and there’s no way out |
And so this hope grows so dim |
As you turn away and run to him |
So once more, tell me |
how you’re thinking that you must be cruel to be kind |
For all your good intentions with me in mind |
Makes me wonder how you’d treat me, baby |
If you wanted to hurt me, no, babe |
If you really wanted to hurt me |
No, babe |
No, baby |
If you really wanted to hurt me |
Yeah, yeah |
So you say you’d stay if you could |
But you must break my heart for my own good |
Makes me wonder how you’d treat me, baby |
If you wanted to hurt me, no, babe |
If you really wanted to hurt me, you’re doing just fine |
For all your good intentions with me in mind |
Makes me wonder how you’d treat me, baby |
If you really wanted to hurt me, yeah, baby |
If you wanted to hurt me, I know you would |
Yeah, yeah, your love, baby |
No, no |
If you really wanted to hurt me |
No, no, no |
Hey now, baby, don’t you do it |
Oh, darling |
(Don't do it) Don’t do it |
(Don't do it) Don’t do it |
(Don't do it) |
No, babe (Oh, baby) |
Don’t do it (Don't do it) |
(Don't do it) |
No, no |
(Don't do it) |
Baby, don’t you do it (Don't do it) |
Baby, don’t do it |
(Don't do it, no) |
(Don't do it) No, no |
(Don't do it) |
(Don't do it, yeah) |
(Don't do it) If I don’t have you, baby |
(Don't do it) By my side |
No, baby |
(Don't do it) |
Makes me wonder how you’d treat me, baby |
If you really wanted to hurt me |
No, baby |
(Don't do it) |
(Don't do it) |
(Don't do it) |
