It Was Easier To Hurt Him Lyrics - Dusty Springfield

(Jerry Ragavoy / Bert Russell) 

I should have told him 

That I needed him 

When I had the chance 

And now he's left me 

And it's all over 

Goodbye romance 

I should have told him then 

Over and over again 

That I love him

But, it was easier to hurt him, ooh 

It was easier to hurt him, ooh 

It was easier to hurt him 

That's what I thought 

Was being so smart 

The way I cheated him 

And mistreated him 

How could I forget? 

I was so sure that he 

Would always trust in me 

Oh, that I'd take a bet, no, no, no 

He'd never say goodbye 

But here all alone am I 

He is gone now, ahh, 'cause 

It was easier to hurt him 

What could I do? 

(It was) Easier to hurt him 

I should have known better 

That's what I thought 

Was being so smart, oh, oh 

It was easier to hurt him 

I need him so bad 

(It was) Easier to hurt him 

What did I do? 

(It was) Easier to hurt him 

I should have known better 

(It was) Easier to hurt him 

I need him so bad
