It Hurts To Be In Love Lyrics - Singles - Pitney Gene

(peak Billboard position # 7 in 1964) 

Words and music by Howie Greenfield and Helen Miller 

It hurts to be in love when the only you love 

Turns out to be someone who's NOT IN LOVE WITH YOU 

It hurts to love her so when deep down inside you know 

She will never want you NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO 

And so you cry a little bit (it hurts to be in love) 

Ah, I die a little bit (it hurts to be in love) 

Day and night, night and day, it hurts to be in love this way. 

How can long can I exist wanting lips I've never kissed? 

She gives all her kisses TO SOMEBODY ELSE 

She thinks I'm just a friend, though it hurts I must pretend 

The only way to keep her is KEEP 'ER TO MYSELF 

And so I cry a little bit (it hurts to be in love) 

Ah, I die a little bit (it hurts to be in love) 

Day and night, night and day, it hurts to be in love this way. 

And so I cry a little bit (it hurts to be in love) 

Ah, I die a little bit (it hurts to be in love) 

Day and night, night and day, it hurts to be in love this way. 

It hurts to be in love, day and night, night and day 

It hurts to be in love, night and day, day and night 

It hurts to be in love, day and night, night and day
