The hurt doesn't go away, the
tears never cease to fall,
You cover them over with people
and places,
Hoping you'll want to break
away.
Oh my darling, the pain doesn't
go away,
When love doesn't want to stay.
And inside your laughter, the
world's laughing too,
Saying you'll never make one
more day.
All the nonsense of it and oh,
the pain doesn't go away.
The tears never cease to fall,
the hurt doesn't go away.
The pain doesn't go away.
