That's When It Hurts

Ben E. King · Other Songs - Ben E. King

That's when it hurts

Oh, oh, yeah

That's when it hurts, ooh



You don't kiss me

Like you used to do

You don't miss me, darling

Darling, darling, darling

When the night is through



So I sit at home

Turn off the light

Here comes the night



That's when it hurts

Yeah, yeah, yeah

That's when it hurts, ooh



I'm going downtown to Joey's place

And I know that, darling

I'm gonna walk right in

And I'll see your face



Yes, you'll be dancing

With someone new

Here comes the pain



That's when it hurts

Oh, oh yeah

That's when it hurts, ooh



Then you're gonna

See me sitting all alone

Based at the corner table



And I'll be sitting there smiling, honey

Sitting over there somewhere by myself

Smoking a cigarette



Then you're gonna feel

That you'll have to come over

And say something real nice to me

Oh baby, that's when

My eyes will get wet



And I'll walk out the door

And I'll walk back home

Take the same street

That we used to take

When we walked alone



Then I'll see your friends

All pitying me

Whoa, their sympathy



That's when it hurts

Oh, oh, oh, yeah

That's when it hurts

Yeah, yeah

It hurts, it hurts, oh, yeah

That's when it hurts
