Hurt Me Bad (In A Real Good Way)
Would've never found you
If he had wanted to stay
Oh, he hurt me bad
In a real good way

Well, he opened my eyes
To a world beyond
That impossible dream
I was living on

And I thank my lucky stars each night
When you're in my arms and you're holding me tight
I realize what it means to have your true love

I would've never found you
If he had wanted to stay
Oh, he hurt me bad
In a real good way

And I thank my lucky stars each night
When you're in my arms and you're holding me tight
I realize what it means to have your true love

When I look back on my life before
How my heart got shattered with a slamming door
I see how it all had to be for the two of us
Oh, the river of tears
That flow from my eyes
Was only moving me on
To this paradise

I would've never found you
If he had wanted to stay
Oh, he hurt me bad
In a real good way
Oh, he hurt me bad
In a real good way
