It Keeps Right On a Hurtin'
Johnny Tillotson
I cry myself to sleep each night wishing I could hold you tight
Life seems so empty since you went away
The pillow where you lay your head holds my lonely tears instead
It keeps right on a hurtin' since you've gone
It keeps right on a hurtin' every minute of the day
Every hour you're away I feel so lonely
And I can't help it I don't think I can go on
And it keeps right on a hurtin' since you've gone
[ steel ]
They say a man should never cry when I see you passing by
My heart breaks down and cries a million tears
You broke my heart and set me free you forgot your memories
And it keeps right on a hurtin' since you've gone
It keeps right on a hurtin' every minute of the day...
