Lyrics
I’m so hurt
To think that you, you lie to me
I’m hurt way down deep inside of me
You said your love was true
And we never, never, ever part
Now, you want someone new
And it breaks my heart
I’m so hurt
Much more, oh, than you ever know
Yes, darling, I’m so hurt
Because I still love you so
But, but even though you hurt me
Like nobody else could ever do
I would never ever hurt, hurt you
