The Hurst Lyrics - Cat Stevens

You say you want to seek the truth, but it's hard to find 

No one to help you, your friends don't have the time 

So you ride around in your car, switch on the radio 

You want to relate to something you once read in a book 

What kind of a way to try to take a look 

Until I got hurt I was looking, I was on my way 

Until I got hurt, until I got hurt, darling I painted my face grey 

Until I got hurt, 'til I got hurt, why didn't I 

I didn't think of this until I got hurt 

'Till I got hurt, baby, I didn't know what love is 

You say you want to learn to laugh 'cause music makes you cry 

But the tears you shed are only in your eye 

So you turn to any phony mouth with a tale to tell 

But he's just a hoaxer don't you know, selling peace and religion 

Between his jokes and his karma chewing gum

Until I got hurt, I was looking, I was the same as you 

Until I got hurt, until I got hurt, I did not know what to do 

Until I got hurt, 'till I got hurt, why didn't [ 

I didn't think of this until I got hurt 

'Till I got hurt, baby, I didn't know what love is 

Young son, don't let me down, young son 

I'm trusting you to keep on, never turn away now 

Hold on, never let go, now hold on 

Turn your heart to the bright sun 

Love will come your way 

Cause 'till you make that final show 

You'll never know what love you've been missing 

Missing 

You say you want to seek the truth but you work alone 

No one to help you and nobody to push you on 

So you sit at home drinking your wine, television on 

You wait for a miracle, 'cause you say one day one'll come along 

( But wishful thinking, boy) any minute now ! You might be gone 

I'd like to help you brother but that would be wrong

Until I got hurt, I was looking, I was on my way 

Until I got hurt, until I got hurt, darling I didn't know which way 

Until I got hurt, 'till I got hurt, why didn't I 

I didn't think of this until I got hurt 

'Till I got hurt, baby, I didn't know what love is 

Until I got hurt, oh I didn't know what love is
