[Verse 1]
Is our love the hurting kind?
I fear to say it is, but I’m just guessing
Say you wished I’d move to Spain
Or that one of us would die of hypertension

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, how I missed you
Would you let me know
If you’ve been lonesome too and can I kiss you?
Quick before you go

[Chorus]
We can hold still, if you don’t mind
If we ignore it, we can be fine
If we learn our love is the hurting kind
No, it won’t empower me
'Til it kills us, we can live a lie
If we ignore it, we can be fine
If we learn our love is the hurting kind
I’ll let it devour me

[Verse 2]
Sorry that your blouse is stained
I simply can’t do laundry with your schedule
And I say, “I miss my best friend
But babies need to eat, they beg attention.”
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, how I missed you
Would you let me know
If you’ve been lonesome too and can I kiss you?
Quick before you go

[Chorus]
We can hold still, if you don’t mind
If we ignore it, we can be fine
And if we learn our love is the hurting kind
No, it won’t empower me
'Til it kills us, we can live a lie
If we ignore it, we can be fine
If we learn our love is the hurting kind
I’ll let it devour me
Oh, I’ll let it devour me

[Bridge]
Would you let me know
Is our love the hurting kind?
I fear to say it is

[Chorus]
We can hold still, if you don’t mind
If we ignore it, we can be fine
If we learn our love is the hurting kind
No, it won’t empower me
'Til it kills us, we can live a lie
If we ignore it, we can be fine
If we learn our love is the hurting kind
I’ll let it devour me
