Hurts - Why
【Verse 1】
There was a time, there was a place
So tell me now, why’d you wake up with that look on your face?
【Pre-Chorus 1】
Don’t you waste my time
Let it go, let it go
And don’t just stand in line
If you wanna lead, you can lead
【Chorus】
Why?
If this is love, then why does it hurt so bad?
Why?
If this id over, then why do I want you back?
So tell me that it’s worth it cause I’m going crazy here
( I just can’t figure it out, I just can’t figure it out)
If this is love, then why does it hurt so bad?
【Verse 2】
There was a time, far away
And I wanna try, try to take us
Take us back to the place
【Pre-Chorus 2】
So don’t hold back for me
Let it out, just let it out
It’s you I wanna see
So let it out and you can lead
【Chorus】
Why?
If this is love, then why does it hurt so bad?
Why?
If this id over, then why do I want you back?
So tell me that it’s worth it cause I’m going crazy here
( I just can’t figure it out, I just can’t figure it out)
If this is love, then why does it hurt so bad?
【Bridge】
Why?
If this is love, then why does it hurt so bad?
【Chorus】
Why?
If this is love, then why does it hurt so bad?
Why?
If this id over, then why do I want you back?
So tell me that it’s worth it cause I’m going crazy here
( I just can’t figure it out, I just can’t figure it out)
