Born in pure innocence
|
Born without the fear
|
She says "Mommy what did I do wrong,
|
To make you cry your angry tears?"
|
Feeling dirty and ashamed
|
Keeps making up excuses
|
She's learned how to hide the pain
|
But she can't hide the bruises anymore
|
There's no light behind her eyes
|
She's tryin to find love in a stranger's touch
|
14 years old and so alone
|
Desperate for what she needs so much
|
She cries herself to sleep at night
|
And prays she won't wake up...
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Love shouldn't hurt
|
Love shouldn't scar
|
But sometimes we can be so blind
|
To the way things really are
|
Love can be so unkind
|
Truth is that hearts get broken everyday
|
But love should never ever hurt this way....
|
|
Children having children and growing up too fast
|
If you've never been shown lvoe
|
How can you give love back?
|
Her newborn baby's cryin'
|
It's more than she can stand
|
She doesn't see the tragedy
|
When she raises her own hand
|
There's no light behind her eyes
|
She doesn't realize what she has done
|
Didn't think she was being so rough
|
Little one won't you please wake up?.....
|
|
[Chorus 2x]
|
|
But love should never ever hurt this way
|
