it hurts to love a woman Lyrics

Remember that night? I sang you to sleep

You woke up in the morning

Told me you had so many dreams

There was this shimmer

In the corner of your eye

This glow about you

That made the room come alive

But you were quick, so quick to return

To the place you thought you deserved

Oh it hurts to love a woman

Who doesn't love herself

So caught up in the search

She can't see what she has found

Oh it hurts to love a woman

Who says she is numb

If she can't feel pain how will she ever love?

Remember that day?

You made breakfast in my shirt

To you it was nothing

But to me it meant the world

There was this hope, within an arm's reach

A sense of chance that only I could see

But it was quick, so quick to retreat

To its grave buried under me

Oh it hurts to love a woman

Who doesn't love herself

So caught up in the search

She can't see what she has found

Oh it hurts to love a woman

Who says she is numb

If she can't feel pain how will she ever love?

See I was in love, but I had to give it up

Cause why would I love someone

Who didn't deem my love enough?

So I said no, you can't know me the way that you did

Cause if I cannot hold you, I can't let you in

Oh it hurts to love a woman

Who doesn't love herself

So caught up in the search

She can't see what she has found

Oh it hurts to love a woman

Who says she is numb

If she can't feel pain how will she ever love?

Oh it hurts to love a woman

Who says she is numb
