Eddie Kendricks
Love Is A Hurtin’ Thing
For every little kiss there's a little teardrop
For every single thrill there's another heartache
The road is rough
The going gets tough

Yes love is a hurtin' thing
And oh love is a hurtin' thing

When you're in my arms I'm king on a throne
But when we're apart I walk the streets all alone
One day happiness
The next day loneliness

Yes love is a hurtin' thing
And oh love is a hurtin' thing

When love brings so much joy, why must it bring so much pain?
Yes it's a mystery that nobody can explain

Maybe I'm a fool to keep on loving you
'Cause there may come a time you'll break my heart in two
But I want you so
And I want you to know that

Love is a hurtin' thing
Oh sweet love
Oh sweet love
