[Intro]
Mmm, baby
(Mmm)
Yes, darling

[Verse 1]
Oh, my sweet darlin', I just can't see
Why I hold onto a love that's only hurting me, hurting me

[Pre-Chorus]
You told me it was all on over, baby
And I should let you go
But my heart keeps, "Hold on, sir
I still love you girl", baby, don't you know

[Chorus]
It's hurting me, yeah, baby (Yes it is)
Ooh, loving you is hurting me
It's hurting me, baby (Yes it is)
I've tried living without you but loving you is hurting me

[Verse 2]
I thought I could forget you, darling
Ooh, and I thought I was strong, baby
But I just can't let you go, girl
I need you twice as bad, baby, since you've been gone
[Pre-Chorus]
My heart said, "You can't live without her" (You can't live without her)
But my mind says that's not true, baby
My eyes says, "Hey, let's cry some"
Hoo, I don't know where to go
Girl, I don't know what to do

[Chorus]
It's hurting me, baby (Yes it is)
Ooh, loving you is hurting me, yeah (Hurting me)
I tried living without you but it's hurting me, darling (Yes it is)
Loving you, loving you is hurting me, baby (Hurting me)

[Bridge]
Hoo, hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
Now let me tell you baby

[Verse 3]
I remember when our love was flyin' high (Yes, I do)
I felt like I owned every star in the sky (Yes, I did)
You promised me I'd never be alone, baby (Yes, you did)
That was then, but baby, now you are gone (Yes it was)

[Chorus]
It's hurting me, baby (Yes it is)
Ooh, loving you is hurting me, darling (Hurting me)
(I'm trying to leave, but I can't without you)
I don't know why you do this to me but it's hurting me (Yes it is)
Ooh (Hurting me)
(I'm trying to leave, but I can't without you)
I can't stand it
Baby. it's hurting, yes indeed (Yes it is)
Oh, ow, loving you is hurting me (Hurting me)
(I'm trying to leave, but I can't without you)
I can't stand it, baby (Hurting me, yes it is)
