WHY DOES IT HURT SO BAD

V5.5

[Intro – R&B] Yeah… I thought I was stronger than this… Thought I could walk away and never look back. But every time I close my eyes… I still see you. [Verse 1 – R&B] I gave you my heart, gave you all of me, Tried to build a love that was supposed to be. Now I’m sitting here talking to an empty room, Wondering how I’m supposed to live without you. I tell everybody that I’m doing okay, But they don’t see the tears when I’m driving away. I smile in the daytime, but at night I fall apart, ’Cause losing you left a hole inside my heart. [Pre-Chorus] I tried to move on, I tried to let go, But the more I fight it, The more my heart says no… [Chorus – Big R&B Hook] Why does it hurt so bad? Why do I miss what we had? I gave you my heart, You gave me these scars, Now I’m here wishing I could turn back the past. Why does it hurt so bad? Why can’t I forget what we had? I’m trying to be strong, But I’ve been hurting so long, Tell me, why does loving you hurt so bad? [Verse 2 – R&B] Your pictures still sitting right there on my phone, I know I should delete them, but I can’t let them go. Every little memory keeps calling my name, And no matter what I do, the feeling stays the same. You were my safe place, my best friend, my home, Now I’m surrounded by people but still feel alone. Maybe I loved you more than I loved myself, And now I’m paying for the love I gave away. [Rap Verse] Yeah… I put my pride aside, I gave you everything, Never thought goodbye would be the song we sing. I was there when you needed somebody by your side, Now I’m fighting all these feelings that I’m trying to hide. Late-night thoughts got me staring at the ceiling, Trying to understand why my heart still has these feelings. They say time heals, but time moves slow, ’Cause every step I take still takes me where you go. I could blame you, but I blame myself, For giving you a love I should’ve saved for myself. If I could go back, I’d do it differently, But some lessons in life come with a broken heart fee. [Bridge – Emotional R&B] Maybe someday I’ll be okay, Maybe someday I’ll forget your name. But tonight, I’m still holding on, Even though I know you’re gone. Tell me how do I love again, When my heart still calls you my friend? I don’t want to feel this pain… But I’d do it all again. [Final Chorus] Why does it hurt so bad? Why do I miss what we had? I gave you my heart, You gave me these scars, Now I’m here wishing I could turn back the past. Why does it hurt so bad? Why can’t I forget what we had? I’m trying to be strong, But I’ve been hurting so long, Tell me, why does loving you hurt so bad? [Outro – Soft R&B] Why does it hurt… Why does it hurt so bad? I let you go… But my heart still wants you back. Yeah… Why does loving you… Hurt so bad?
