(Frank Musker, Dominic King)
|
"I'm in love with him", she said
|
With all the innocence of tender years
|
But somewhere down the road ahead
|
I could see the same eyes
|
Filled with bitter tears
|
I had the inclination
|
To tell her not to drop her guard
|
To tell her that life can be hard
|
But I didn't have the heart
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
You have to hurt - to understand
|
You have to get by the best you can
|
Until you hurt - until you cry
|
You won't know about love
|
And the reason you're alive
|
You have to hurt
|
|
She said, "I know he'll never leave me
|
I never felt it deep inside like this before"
|
It was good to see her, believe me
|
But I couldn't stand to hear this anymore
|
|
All that expectation
|
Too naive to really see
|
Maybe she knew better than me
|
It was better just to let her be
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Little sister, you're so sweet
|
Thinking love runs smooth
|
You don't know the half of it
|
We laugh until we lose
|
There's no way around it
|
|
[Chorus]
|
