It Hurts So Bad Lyrics By Kim Carnes

    when it hurts too bad
    you got to let go
    can’t let him know that
    he’s really gotten to ya

    and it hurts so bad
    when you’re all alone
    those old memories
    keep goin’ through ya

    and you wanna act nonchalant
    but you can’t
    ’cause he keeps on haunting you

    and when it hurts so bad
    gotta try and pretend
    he’s just a casual friend
    who never meant a thing to ya

    well you can fool your friends
    and you can laugh a lot
    it’s all a cover up
    of what he really means to ya

    and you try and act nonchalant
    but you can’t
    ’cause he keeps on haunting you
    yes and it hurts so bad

    oh how can it hurt this bad
    when it was never planned
    but you stole my heart
    and here i am
    i’m possessed by you
    i’m obsessed with you
    what i tryin’ to say
    is i love you

    now how can i act nonchalant
    when all i want is
    to spend the night with you

    oh when it hurts this bad
    you got to let go
    can’t let him know that
    he’s really gotten to ya

    and it hurts so bad
    when you’re all alone
    those old memories
    keep goin’ through ya

    and it hurts so bad
    oh i know it hurts so bad
    whoa it hurts so bad
    it hurts so bad
    i know it hurts so bad
    it hurts so bad
