Love Hurts

tonight we drink to youth
and holding fast to truth
(i don't want to lose what I had as a boy)
my heart still has a beat
but love is now a feat
(as common as a cold day in LA)
sometimes when I'm alone, I wonder
is there a spell that I am under
keeping me from seeing the real thing?

love hurts
but sometimes it's a good hurt
and it feels like I'm alive
love sings,
when it transcends the bad things
have a heart and try me,
'cause without love I won't survive

i'm fettered and abused,
i stand naked and accused
(should i surface this one man submarine?)
i only want the truth
so tonight we drink to youth
(i'll never lose what I had as a boy)
sometimes when I'm alone I wonder
is there a spell that I am under
keeping me from seeing the real thing?

love hurts
but sometimes it's a good hurt
and it feels like I'm alive
love sings
when it transcends the bad things
have a heart and try me
'cause without love I won't survive
