Every love song
on every TV
and Hollywood told me
it should be beautiful and sweet
like watching soul train
with Marvin Gaye on

but baby it hurts to love you
baby it hurts to need you too

you're so lovely
you come in armies
packing punches
and swinging wildly at me
Lord there must be
something worse in your whole universe

but baby it hurts to love you
baby it hurts to need you too

then you're there in my door
in the middle of the night
you're so beautiful when you're high
you're face red with blood and wine
you tell me you're dying inside

baby it hurts to love you
baby it hurts to need you too

in my mind's eye
we're kissing madly
watching "All In The Family"

taking it easy
getting drunk on torch songs
and fast food
and me and you

baby it hurts
baby it hurts to love you
baby it hurts to love you
