Why Do We Always Hurt The Ones We Love

Here we go again, hurting each other for no reason

Wondering why we keep repeating the same mistakes

Seems the more we give, the more we’re disillusioned

Baby, what is it we’re doing, are we so scared of give and take, oh

Why do we always hurt the ones we love, why

Just when it seems we finally made the breakthrough

Why can’t we fly between the eagle and the dove

Why do we always hurt the ones we love

Sometimes it seems like the silences between us

Cut deeper than the meanest words, feel colder than the night

Every time I feel as though I’m finally gonna leave

It seems as though I just can’t breathe, girl, without you in my life, oh

Why do we always hurt the ones we love, why

Just when it seems we finally made the breakthrough

Why can’t we fly between the eagle and the dove

Why do we always hurt the ones we love

When you cry I feel as though the tears are falling

From my eyes, why do we do this to each other

There’s so much we should be proud of

So many dreams that we have shared

I’d hate to think that we’re right there without you standing here

Tell me why do we always hurt the ones we love, why

When we finally made the breakthrough

Why can’t we fly between the eagle and the dove

Why do we always hurt the ones we love, oh

Why can’t we fly between the eagle and the dove

Why do we always hurt the ones we love, why
