It Hurts Like Love

It sure felt like forever
When we were together
Imagine my surprise

When you told me It was over
Threw your coat over your shoulder
And walked out of my life

You said that it was just infatuation
Somethin' I'd get over soon enough

But it hurts like love and it feels like heartache
You were here in my arms and then you were gone
And now it's just too late

It's a cryin' shame, after all of this pain
I'm still not sure just what it was
But it hurts like love

I don't know how it happened
I gave it all my passion
Believing it was real

I was sure that it could save you
But all it ever gave you
Was this emptiness I feel

I know that it's only an illusion
But every night that I don't feel your touch

It hurts like love and it feels like heartache
You were here in my arms and then you were gone
And now it's just too late

It's a cryin' shame, after all of this pain
I'm still not sure just what it was
But it hurts like love

You know
I'm still not sure just what it was
But it hurts like love
