Take the Hurt Out of Me
Brenda Lee · Other Songs - Brenda Lee
With the smile of song
Hold me close and you'll see
I've been hurt so long.
I've been chained to the past
By an old remote dream
So, take me somewhere tonight
Take as long as you like
Take the hurt out of me.
Take the hurt out of me
Lord it's buried so deep
And tonight you might see
I might cry in my sleep.
But, it's only a dream
Of what once used to be
But, I'll give love a chance
If you'll tell me your change for me
Take the hurt out of me.
Take the hurt out of me
Then let the sunshine in
Oh darlin make me, make me
Make me feel that I can feel again.
Its been locked deep inside
How it longs to be free
So take me somewhere tonight
Just as long as you like
But take the hurt out of me.
Take me somewhere tonight
Take as long as you like
Take the hurt out of me...
