Children say that words will never harm you
Only sticks and stones will make you cry
But they'll grow up one day and learn the real truth
When the one they love says goodbye
The hardest part of living is loving
'Cause loving turns to leaving every time
And the hardest part of leaving is living
Life is hard when love is so unkind
Life is hard when love is so unkind
I don't trust old sayings any longer
Most are only decorated lies
Absence doesn't make the heart grow fonder
And out of sight don't mean out of mind
The hardest part of living is loving
'Cause loving turns to leaving every time
And the hardest part of leaving is living
Life is hard when love is so unkind
Life is hard when love is so unkind

When the first hint of sunshine
Peeks between the window blinds
And the morning hits my pillow
The sweetest dream is left behind
I'd rather die than face a new day
'Cause I always wake to find
That I'm feeling just as lonely
As the day you said goodbye
Can you feel me reaching for you
In the middle of the night
What I'd give to hold you, darling
Within these arms of mine
Can you feel me reaching for you
In the middle of the night
What I'd give to hold you, darling
Within these arms of mine
All my heartache would be over
If my dream came true one time
Then I wouldn't have to live with
The day you said goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
. . .

Sorrow, I'm told
Comes and goes
But that ain't what I say
'Cause for me
The misery
Never goes away
It's been like this
Ever since
You told me goodbye
And I've refused
To lose these blues
But it's time I tried
It's time I tried
To mend my broken heart
Dry my eyes
And make a brand new start
LyricsI have to heal this hurt I feel
And get you off my mind
It might be hard
But it's time I tried
All I do
Is long for you
When I turn out the lights
'Cause nothing's left
But loneliness
To hold onto at night
I toss and turn
While my heart yearns
For love I've been denied
I can't replace
Your warm embrace
But it's time I tried
It's time I tried
To mend my broken heart
Dry my eyes
And make a brand new start
I have to heal this hurt I feel
And get you off my mind
It might be hard
But it's time I tried
It's time I tried
. . .

When you left, I never thought I'd say
I'm alright without you anyway
But just because I say the words
Don't mean I think they're true
It's just that it's the best that I can do
I don't go to places you might be
I can't take the chance that we might meet
But just because I've stayed away
Don't mean I wanted to
It's just that it's the best that I can do
Someday I'll do better, but till then
I can't let you know how hurt I've been
I wish I had you back with me
But I won't play on your sympathy
To get you in my arms once again
I admit there are others I have seen
Sometimes I need the company
But just because I'm loving them
Don't mean I'm over you
It's just that it's the best that I can do
. . .

You crawl back tonight saying you miss me
With your tail between your legs
What's going on here ain't no mystery
Still, it's fun watching you beg
Settling down won't come natural
But think it over
I hear you found someone who's true
That she treats you fine
Now that poor girl's love won't do
And you're wanting some of mine
Settling down won't come natural
But think it over
I know why you cheat on me
Always running 'round and 'round
Every time I turn my back
You'll never change
Lyrics
Every woman loves a bit differently
But hurts the same
That's what keeps you going
That's what keeps you trapped
Don't tell me you've learned your lesson
Unless you really want to quit
It takes more than a confession
For an old dog to learn new tricks
Settling down won't come natural
But think it over
Think it over
. . .

Please don't bring me flowers
Tied up in a pretty bow
I'd trade a thousand roses
For just one hand to hold
And I don't want no candy
Sugar hurts my teeth
All I want is you tonight
That'd be really sweet
There's nothing at the five-and-dime
That I really need
Your kiss is the only gift
That means a thing to me
Bring me all your lovin'
That's something you ain't tried
Bring me all your lovin'
And I'll be satisfied
LyricsI don't want a poem
Written fancy on a card
I'd rather have "I love you"
Scribbled on my heart
And I won't wear a new dress
From a downtown store
But wrap me up in your arms
And baby, I'll be yours
There's nothing at the five-and-dime
That I really need
Your kiss is the only gift
That means a thing to me
Bring me all your lovin'
That's something you ain't tried
Bring me all your lovin'
And I'll be satisfied
That's the truth
No, there's nothing at the five-and-dime
That I really need
Your kiss is the only gift
That means a thing to me
Bring me all your lovin'
That's something you can't buy
Bring me all your lovin'
And I'll give you all of mine
Bring me all your lovin'
Throw your presents in the creek
Yeah, bring me all your lovin'
And I'll be tickled pink
. . .

Is it worth it
You gotta wonder
No sane person
Would say it was
It's for certain
We're going under
Things ain't working
Between the two of us
Is it worth it
To go on trying
We keep rehearsing
And getting worse
Let's close the curtain
This act's dying
We did our version
It didn't work
LyricsIs it worth
The price we are paying
Is it worth
The damage being done
Is it worth
The both of us staying
If you think so
Then you're the only one
Is it worth it
What are we doing
Let's not be martyrs
For the sake of love
This is a burden
Of our own choosing
It'd be smarter
If we gave up
. . .

It's nearly 3 a.m.
And still no sight of him
When it comes to love
I'm in the dark
Lord, I don't understand
Why I stand by my man
All he's ever done
Is break my heart
Won't you send down an angel
From the blue
To show me the righteous
Thing to do
Oh, I'm calling out to you
Send down an angel
To get me through
I'm not the praying kind
But it can't hurt to try
LyricsI can't find the answer
By myself
I need help
Won't you send down an angel
From the blue
To show me the righteous
Thing to do
Oh, I'm calling out to you
Send down an angel
To get me through
Won't you send down an angel
From the blue
To show me the righteous
Thing to do
Oh, I'm calling out to you
Send down an angel
To get me through
. . .

You've finally gone and done it
Broke it right in two
There's no way you can fix it
So pocket your excuse
Don't tell me that you're sorry
That'll only make it worse
I'm tired of your story
I know it word for word
I make no bones about it
Stupid is as stupid does
I had to learn the hard way
You're a man that I can't trust
If only I'd known sooner
I was gonna be betrayed
I would've left the first time
I ever heard you say
LyricsI didn't mean to break your heart
I apologize
If you'll just give me
One more chance
There'll be no next time
I promise I will never break your heart
Again
Again
Again
Right now it's a-hurtin'
But it'll be okay
I'll pick up both the pieces
And be on my way
You know that I love you
Yeah, that's been my mistake
So before I go, let's hear it
Once more for old time's sake
I didn't mean to break your heart
I apologize
If you'll just give me
One more chance
There'll be no next time
I promise I will never break your heart
Again
Again
Again

The moment these lips said I'm leaving
I felt in my heart I was wrong
But I told myself I might as well
Since I already spent nights alone
I thought I had put it behind me
Guess that's why I'm so surprised
That my heart started a-racing
When I ran into you tonight
I'm feeling that feeling again
Exactly like I did back then
But darling, only a fool
Would take one more chance with you
There was a good reason why
I had to tell you goodbye
But I can't pretend
It's not love that I'm in
'Cause I'm feeling that feeling again
LyricsNow I'm lying here like I used to
Lonesome as a young widowed bride
And just like the old days, before I went my way
A question is burning inside
Were we made for each other
To walk through the fire hand in hand
Well, I'll never know for certain
But I'm feeling that feeling again
I'm feeling that feeling again
Exactly like I did back then
But darling, only a fool
Would take one more chance with you
