Hurts

It hurts when I miss you
It hurts when I cry
It hurts all the time
   and I wonder why
It hurts when you're far away
It hurts when you're near
It hurts to know
   that you'll never stay here
It hurts when we talk
It hurts when I ignore you
It hurts with other guys
   but they're easier to get to
It hurts when you touch me
It hurts when we kiss
It hurts when when I realize
    I can't take much more of this
It hurts when you say you love me
It hurts when you say I'm above you
It hurts right to my heart
   because it hurts when I love you
