I learned a lesson in my life
But I learned it the hard way
I don't know why I used to fall in love
With the wrong kind

Then I suffer so much pain
But I only had myself to blame
Maybe you came
In the nick of time to show me

Love doesn't have to hurt
To feel good
It's such a revelation
With you I can be myself
I know it should
Don't have to cry
Don't have to fight
Don't have to die
Night after night
Show me
Love (Love)
Doesn't have to hurt to feel good

Darling now it seems to me
Like I've always known you
But I still shudder
When I think back
On the lonely times

I used to keep all my feelings inside
From your eyes I have nothing to hide
Baby you came
In the nick of time to show me

Love doesn't have to hurt
To feel good
It's such a revelation
With you I can be myself
I know it should
Don't have to cry
Don't have to fight
Don't have to die
Night after night
Show me
Love (Love)
Doesn't have to hurt to feel good

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Baby

Lying here beside you
Feels so fine
Talking about everything in this heart of mine

Love doesn't have to hurt
To feel good
It's such a revelation
With you I can be myself
I know it should
Don't have to cry
Don't have to fight
And in your arms
Night after night
Show me
Love (Love)
Doesn't have to hurt to feel good
Yeah
Thank you baby, thank you baby
