some fools rave on happiness blissfulness togetherness / some fools fool themselves i guess

Love Hurts
by Boudleaux Bryant

first recorded by The Everly Brothers 1960

Live radio performance 1973
Gram Parsons, Emmylou Harris & the Fallen Angels

Love hurts
love scars
love wounds and mars

Any heart not tough
nor strong enough
To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain
Love is like a cloud, holds a lot of rain

Love hurts
Oooh ... love hurts

I'm young
I know
but even so
I know a thing or two
I've learned from you

I've really learned a lot
really learned a lot
Love is like a stove
burns you when it's hot
Love hurts
love hurts

Some fools rave on happiness
blissfulness
togetherness
Some fools fool themselves I guess
But they're not fooling me

I know it isn't true
know it isn't true
Love is just a lie
made to make you blue
Love hurts
Oooh ... love hurts
Oooh ... love hurts

Oooh ... love hurts
Oooh ... love hurts
