We step on a stage

From straight off a page

Of everything that's gone before

We dream of a time

Of crossing a line

And opening another door

Rivers of stardust in our eyes

Leading us out there

How could this just be an illusion?



We play out our part

The chemistry starts

The future is a shooting star

We try to ignore

Whats happened before

The storybook of who we are

Till suddenly one and one makes three

And lovers are losers

You and me drowning in confusion



Love hurts

Even when the love is strong

Love hurts even while the love goes on

Turning these pages in my heart

Over and over

Still only leads to one conclusion

Love hurts, love hurts



Can we just end this fight

Make out what's wrong from right

Or see with second sight

The reason why?

repeat chorus Love hurts etc
