[ Featuring Southside Johnny, the Asbury Jukes ]
Ask me why I feel like crying
Tell me what I've done to you
Listen, don't turn away
Cause I'm in love with you
Because it hurts, because it hurts
Because it hurts, because it hurts
Oh, you got to got to stop
Any kind of situation
Any kind of complication
Is better than the day you had enough of me
Because it hurts, because it hurts
Because it hurts, because it hurts
Oh, you got to got to stop
I can beat the world any day
It doesn't mean that much to me
But a single word from you
And baby, I am destroyed
Ask me why I feel so lonely
Tell me why you act so cold
How can you treat me so unkind
When I love you
Because it hurts, because it hurts
Because it hurts, because it hurts
Oh, you got to got to stop
Baby, because
Baby, because
Oh, because it hurts
