Hurts Don't It

Hurts Don't It
Lately, I've been avoiding you
And no, I ain't been telling you the truth
I never thought I'd do the things you've done
I never thought I'd be the leaving one
Well I've caught you by surprise
And it's showing, hurts don't it

You're standing there with tears all down your face
Have you noticed, there's a bare spot in that place?
'Cause I've stood there myself so many times
Searchin' for the words to change your mind
So I know just how your feelin'
At this moment, hurts don't it
Don't it knock you down
Don't it take your breath away
To have me turn my back on you,
while you're begging me to stay
Don't it tear your insides out
To watch me load my car
Oh, ain't that enough?
Right through the heart
When you give someone your love
and they don't want it, hurts don't it
Say you realize you've done me wrong
Well I've gotta be in Bakersfield by dawn
You're telling me that you'll do anything
I've still gotta stop for gas upon this reign
There's just one thing left to say
And I'll be going, hurts don't it

Don't it knock you down
Don't it take your breath away
To have me turn my back on you,
while you're begging me to stay
Don't it tear your insides out
To watch me load my car
Oh, ain't that enough?
Right through the heart
When you give someone your love and they don't want it, it hurts, hurts don't it
Oh, you know it hurts, hurts don't it
