Lyrics
I GAVE UNTIL IT HURT Late at night, in this big empty house I’m a-lone, the old ghosts all come out- I still hear your voice, still smell your- perfume- Feel your fingers on my skin I’ve got ev’rything but you They say- love, can make fools of us all But I know, it took you to make me fall You took ev’ry-thing when you walked out that door- Oh, I gave- until it hurt, girl but it don’t hurt no more You told me, we could stand for all time Now you’re gone; I guess you changed your mind All those empty words, empty promises Oh the bitter taste of lies, linger longer than your kiss For some time, I was in misery My poor heart would not give me any peace You took ev’rything when you walked out the door Oh I gave until it hurt, girl but it don’t hurt no more BRIDGE: Don’t you worry yourself about this old heart of mine- You broke- it right in two but I’m doin’ just fine Those sad days are now just memories Cause I’ve found-- a true heart- that’s just- for me You took ev’ry-thing- when you walked out that door- Oh, I gave until it hurt, girl but it don’t hurt no more-- © 1996,2016 ITSMYSONG MUSIC (ASCAP) All Rights Reserved
