Love is a Four-Letter Word Lyrics

Love is a four-letter word

Why does it have to hurt

Why does it have to hurt

So good and so bad

I'm the one you had

And you're still in my head

Oh you're still in my head

Because you didn't really care for me

You simply wanted to be there with me

You simply wanted to show me off

And you never asked me anything

You never asked me if I wanted love

You never really gave me any love

For you I just was some stuff

That you brought along

Love is a four-letter word

Sometimes it really hurts

Other times it feels so good

But I would give you the world

Yeah I would give you the world

But you don't want the world

You want someone else

And you were so cruel

You made me feel so small

And I could never tell

If you cared at all

And you said you were a friend

I found out in the end

You are not a friend, no

You are not a friend

But I believe that I will prevail

And in the end

I'll have my own story to tell

Yeah, I believe that maybe you meant well

Because you'd never been loved

You'd never been loved yourself

In the end you, you'd never been loved yourself

Love is a four-letter word

I can think of a few words

That don't hurt as much

And I, I, I promise I'll learn

How to love myself

Because that comes first

Yes, that comes first

And I believe that you meant well

And in the end

I'll call you up and say it's ok

No, I don't feel

No, I don't feel the pain

I got enough love

For the whole, for the whole world

I got enough love

For the whole, for the whole world

I got enough love

For the whole, for the whole world

I've got enough love, love, love

For the whole world ay ay

So love, love, love yourself

Give something to your heart

Love, love, love yourself

Give something to them all those lonely ones

Who come around

Don't be scared they may hurt you

Cause sometimes they may give you the gift

Sometimes they're gonna give you the gift

Sometimes they're gonna give you the gift
