from the songs album Surrender
(nickolas ashford/valerie simpson)
If it didn't hurt so bad
If it didn't hurt so bad
Maybe i could cry
If i thought it was all a joke
And you were putting me on
If i could just make a wish
And this moment would be all gone
If i could see a trace of hope
Somewhere in your eyes
Maybe then i could do
A simple thing like cry
If it didn't hurt so bad
If it didn't hurt so bad
Maybe i could cry
Don't you know i plan to spend
Every moment of my life with you
Now you're trying to tell me
That my dreams just won't come true
Thanks for giving me a million reasons why
But it hurts too bad to do
A simple thing like cry
If i thought it was all a joke
And you were putting me on
If i could just make a wish
And this moment would be all gone
If i could see a trace of hope
Somewhere in your eyes
Maybe then i could do
A simple thing like cry
If it didn't hurt so bad
If it didn't hurt me so bad
Maybe i could
If it didn't hurt so bad
Maybe i could cry
I could cry, cry
If it didn't hurt me
If i didn't love you
Hurt me
