My heart felt like a mountain crashing.

A dying victim of your crushing words.

My courage trampled by your good-bye.

My last shred of happiness, suppress by the closing of your heart's door.



(Chorus) I hurt so bad I can't describe it.

I can't breathe, and I can't hide it.

Will it ever fade?  Is it here to stay?

Why must I hurt and feel this way?



You plucked your love from my native soul,

And ripped it from my pssionate heart.

I watched it wither and die, cold upon the floor,

Right before my tear filled eyes.



(Chorus) I hurt so bad I can't describe it.

I can't breathe, and I can't hide it.

Will it ever fade?  Is it here to stay? 

Why must I hurt and feel this way?



Now, in agony, our paths are parting, although I simply can't endure.

But, somewhere in the recent past, our paths  began as friends,

And friends grew into lovers, and a love took hold

That grew so strong, I can't conceive it's deepness.



(chorus) I hurt so bad I can't describe it.

I can't breathe, and I can't hide it.

Will it ever fade?  Is it here to stay?

Why must I hurt and feel this way?



Torn apart, far to soon, in a way far to wrong,

Under a canopy of circumstances that crown it,

And bittersweet memories taht compound it.

A milestone in my life, one that I had rather miss.

Oh, I'd give anything, for just one embrace, and anything, 

Anything, anything, for just one fleeting, stolen kiss.



(chorus) I hurt so bad I can't describe it.

I can't breathe, and I can 't hide it.

Will it ever fade?  Is it here to stay?

Why must I hurt and feel this way?
