Hurtin' Like I've Never Hurt Before

Buck Owens · Tall Dark Stranger [1969]

Yes, I'm hurtin' like I've never hurt before.



Well, every place I look I see a trail of broken hearts

Bill and Bob and Joe still wear your mark

And everybody's talking 'bout the things you did to Jim

Oh, if this is love please give it back to him.



You've got me too upset to weep too wound up to sleep

Waitin' for your knock upon my door

You've got me starin' at the skies chasin' butterflies

Hurtin' like I've never hurt before.



--- Instrumental ---



Well, I've been a lot of places and I've seen a lot of things

Many broken hearts and shattered dreams

I've bragged of many conquest of how love fell at my feet

Oh, is this really happening to me.



You've got me too upset to weep too wound up to sleep

Waitin' for your knock upon my door

You've got me starin' at the skies chasin' butterflies

Hurtin' like I've never hurt before.



Yes, I'm hurtin' like I've never hurt before...
