It Ain’t Love Until It Hurts

[Verse 1]
When I was younger and love was easy to come by
All it ever caught was my eye
I thought that's how it worked
But now the hunger is harder to satisfy
And it cuts deeper than a knife
But it ain't love
It ain't love until it hurts

[Chorus]
It ain't love until it hurts
Too much to leave it alone
It ain't love until it cuts
All the way to the bone
No matter how bad it feels
When it bleeds, you know it's real
The more it costs, the more it's worth
'Cause it ain't love until it hurts

[Verse 2]
You make a few mistakes
You give and take and learn to bend
You become enemies and best friends
But it's for better or for worse
It takes the heartaches
A long way now and then
To bring you back together again
But it ain't love
No, it ain't love until it hurts

[Chorus]
It ain't love until it hurts
Too much to leave it alone
It ain't love until it cuts
All the way to the bone
No matter how bad it feels
When it bleeds, you know it's real
The more it costs, the more it's worth
'Cause it ain't love until it hurts

[Tag]
Too much to leave it alone
It ain't love until it cuts
All the way to the bone

[Fade out]
