[Verse 1]
How come sometimes we go so well together
And other times we grow apart?
How come you find no way to make it better
When there's this pain so deep in my heart, I don't know

[Chorus]
Lovin' you only brings me pain
Baby, when I'm with you
And through all others you remain
When I don't know what more that I can do

[Verse 2]
Our love has never been a bed of roses
Our personalities always clash
Through all the tears, and touch, and temperamental poses
Your kisses say nothing lasts... I don't know

[Chorus]
Lovin' you only brings me pain (only brings me pain)
Whenever I'm with you, babe
And through all others you remain
And I don't know what more I can do

[Scat Break]
[Verse 3]
I liken our love to a gentle fire
And if I get too close then I'll get burned
But just close enough and I'll be warm as a little baby
How come you just can't give me what I've earned?

[Chorus]
Lovin' you only brings me pain (all back)
Ooh, whenever I'm with you
And through all others you remain
And I don't know what more than I can do

[Bridge]
Livin' with this pain am I
Livin' with this pain am I
Livin' with this pain am I
Livin' with this pain am I (whoa, whoa)
Lovin' you only brings me pain
Ooh, whenever I'm with you
And through all others you remain
Livin' with this pain am I

[Chorus]
Lovin' you only brings me pain
Always be right next to love
All I wanna do is right here with you, baby
And through all others you remain (oh)
I don't know
[Chorus]
Lovin' you only brings me pain (I don't know)
Livin' with this pain am I
And through all others you remain
Livin' with this pain am I
