Love Hurts

Everly Brothers, The · Other Songs - Everly Brothers, The

Love hurts, love scars, love wounds and mars
Any heart not tough nor strong enough
To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain,
Love is like a cloud, holds a lot of rain .....
Love hurts ......
Oooh ...... love hurts.

I'm young, I know, but even so
I know a thing or two, I've learned from you
I've really learned a lot, really learned a lot
Love is like a flame ,it burns you when it's hot
Love hurts, love hurts

Some fools rave on happiness, blissfullness, togetherness
Some fools fool themselves I guess
But they're not fooling me ......

I know it isn't true, know it isn't true
Love is just a lie, made to make you blue
Love hurts ......
Oooh ...... love hurts.
Oooh ...... love hurts.

Oooh ...... love hurts.
Oooh ...... love hurts.

Love Hurts - Everly Brothers

Released in 1957, "Love Hurts" stands as a cornerstone of the Everly Brothers' catalog, exemplifying the duo's signature harmonies and twangy country-rock sound. The track, written by Don Gibson, captures the raw emotional intensity of heartbreak that defined their early recordings. As one of the most recorded songs in history, it has been covered by countless artists across genres, yet the original version remains a definitive example of 1950s rock and roll. Its enduring popularity stems from the brothers' seamless vocal interplay and the song's universal theme of longing and pain, cementing its place in the canon of classic American music.
