Love Is Just a Pain in the Heart

(Red Lane - Dottie West)



Everybody's been in love at one time or another

Including me not so long ago

And everybody's been hurt in one way or the other

Let me say that I am one of those.



How can others stay together

And our love fall apart

To some love may be pretty but to me

Love's just the pain in the heart.



I suppose there are many who lived a life like mine

In a world of love with everything to gain

A chosen few have been showered with true love everlasting

But here I am I'm left out in the rain.



I just can't understand it

I guess I'm not too smart

But all I've known is heartache so to me

Love's just the pain in the heart...
