Lyrics
Baby, baby, baby
You know I love you
And I know you could love me too
But you can't let yourself be unfaithful
You can't let yourself be untrue, oh
If I know it would make just a little bit of diff'rence now
I'd gladly get down on my knees, yes I would, oh
But I might as well
Make myself face it
Oh, I know that you'd never
You never belong to me, oh!
Oh, that's why it hurts me so much
It hurts me so much
To be unable to look
When you know that you can't touch
Oh, the best thing to do
Is to try to be stronger
Push my heart out of the way
Ah, I can't let it
It can't go on any longer, oh
Oh, the game, the game is getting too rough
Too rough to play, oh
Oh, that's why it hurts me so much
It hurts me so much
It hurts me, it hurts me so much
No, don't let it hurt me so much
It hurts
