You find it hard to sleep 'cos when you close your eyes
You still got her picture hanging on your mind
You wish you didn't need what you just can't have
But there ain't nothing you can do

There's not a second that you don't think about her
But she don't even think one single thought of you

Why does love got to be so unfair?
Making you heart see something that's just not there
Why does love got to be so unkind?
Making you hurt so bad no its just no right
Why does love got to be so unfair?

Oh, why does love got to be so unfair, baby?

It's such a sad affair when you give your heart
And the one you give it to just goes and tears it all apart
You wish you didn't care, didn't care at all
But all you do is care too much

There's not a single night you don't dream about her
But your the very last thing she'll be dreaming of

Why does love got to be so unfair?
Making you heart see something that's just not there
Why does love got to be so unkind?
Making you hurt so bad no its just not right
Why does love got to be so unfair?

Oh, it's a sad fact its the cold hard truth
Sometimes you're gonna learn that love is cruel
Sometimes you're gonna find out
Gonna find the one you love
Just don't love you

Why does love got to be so unfair?
Making you heart see something that's just not there
Why does love got to be so unkind?
Making you hurt so bad no it's just not right
Why does love, oh, why does love got to be so unfair?

Why does love got to be so unfair?
Making you heart see something that's just not there
Why does love got to be so unkind?
Making you hurt so bad no it's just not right
