Love That Hurts

Echoes of a love that once burned bright

Lost in the shadows of endless night

We started with a spark, so pure, so true

A future built on hopes, me and you

But time played its game, and the fire grew cold

Now all that's left are stories untold

Every word, a weapon, every silence, a wall

Fighting just to keep from the fall

Feeling the ache deep in my soul

Wishing somehow we could reach our goal

It hurts so much to love you this way

Lost in the storm, can't find the day

All the fights, all the tears, all the pain

Still I hold on, through the rain

Cause I love you desperately, can’t let go

Even when it hurts, I want you to know

That in my heart, you’re still the one

My fight, my love, my undone

Two little hearts that look up at me

Trying to find what used to be

She’s my girl, my own, my safe place

In her smile, I find my grace

Our love's a battle, a fragile chain

Fighting for hope, for joy, for sane

It's tearing us apart, but I pray

That someday love will find its way

It hurts so much to love you this way

Lost in the storm, can't find the day

All the fights, all the tears, all the pain

Still I hold on, through the rain

Cause I love you desperately, can’t let go

Even when it hurts, I want you to know

That in my heart, you’re still the one

My fight, my love, my undone

Maybe time can heal this wound

Or maybe we’re meant to lose or choose

But I’ll care for our little girl, so brave

Building a future, beyond the grave

Love hurts, but I’ll always stay near

Through every fight, every tear, every fear

In my heart, you'll always remain

Endless love, despite the pain
