[INTRO] Fight after fight Tears keep falling You say you’re sorry But when will you understand? I’m running out of strength Oh-oh, yeah [VERSE 1] Fight after fight, I’m breaking down “I’m sorry” is all I hear now All the words, all the tears Keep spinning around in my head I wanna leave, I wanna let go But somehow I still hold on Maybe I’m foolish, maybe I believe The person you were is still underneath [PRE-CHORUS] Late at night, I watch the stars Wishing we could go back Back to who we used to be Back to the love we had [CHORUS] ’Cause love can hurt so much Baby, it can leave you numb Every time I forgive you I keep hoping you will change I gave you all of me And almost lost myself I still love you, baby But I need to love myself Oh-oh, love can hurt so much When your heart just won’t let go I’m holding on to memories Of a love we used to know [VERSE 2] Somewhere along the way I lost a piece of me I keep looking through our memories For the love I used to see How can I accept this When I know I deserve more? I’m tired of trying to be enough While you keep closing the door I don’t need perfect love I just need something real I need you to hear me I need you to understand how I feel [PRE-CHORUS] Late at night, I watch the stars And wonder where we went How did something beautiful Turn into all this regret? [CHORUS] ’Cause love can hurt so much Baby, it can leave you numb Every time I forgive you I keep hoping you will change I gave you all of me And almost lost myself I still love you, baby But I need to love myself Oh-oh, love can hurt so much When your heart just won’t let go I’m holding on to memories Of a love we used to know [BRIDGE – R&B SOUL] I don’t wanna hear “I’m sorry” If nothing ever changes I don’t wanna cry forever Over the same old pain I just wanna feel loved I just wanna feel enough Tell me, baby, tell me now Is there still a you and me? Can we find our way back? Can we make this love last? Or am I holding on To someone from the past? [FINAL CHORUS] ’Cause love can hurt so much Baby, it can leave you numb I gave you all of me And almost lost who I was Every time I forgave you I kept hoping things would change But now I’m finding myself And I won’t lose me again Love can hurt so much But I know what I deserve I wanna be loved as I am I wanna know that love can work [OUTRO] Oh-oh… I still love you, baby But I won’t lose myself Underneath these stars I’m finally letting go… Of the person you used to be.
