Permanent Hurt Lyrics - John Hiatt

What is that fallin' out of your eyes 

What is that rollin' on down your shit 

Thunder and lightning from the bloodshot skies 

This time its feeling like a permanent hurt 

What is that lipstick up on his sleeve 

Wheres the forgiveness thats stronger than dirt 

Tearin' the words out when you ask him to leave 

This time its gonna be a permanent hurt 

A permanent hurt, yeah a pemanent hurt 

The pain and the memories do the dirty work 

Promises broken hearts on red alert 

The surface will heal 

But its feelin' like a permanent hurt

What were you thinkin when you fell in love 

What were you thinkin in that little black skirt 

Bet you a rainbow you werent thinkin of 

Suffin' your heels up on a permanent hurt 

A permanent hurt, yeah a pemanent hurt 

The pain and the memories do the dirty work 

Promises broken hearts on red alert 

The surface will heal 

But its feelin' like a permanent hurt 

It's all temporary like the big book tells 

Ashes to ashes, baby dirt to dirt 

Something gets scary 

Someone runs like hell 

Somebody winds up with a permanent hurt

A permanent hurt, yeah a pemanent hurt 

The pain and the memories do the dirty work 

Promises broken hearts on red alert 

The surface will heal 

But it's feeling like a permanent hurt
