Lyrics

Love Like I've Never Been Hurt Before
Jim Bennett © 2005

VERSE 1
How do I get back to the place I was before
It's almost impossible when I think about the slamming door
Why did something so good have to end so fast
I though if I poured my heart out then love was meant to last

CHORUS
Oh, but how am I to know
If I don't give it a go again
I'm just too afraid
And I feel like I'm over my head
I can't start thinking about what happened last time
If I give it a try once more
Oh, I guess I've got to love like I've never been hurt before

VERSE 2
Every time I see her friends they all look down on me
It's like I'm a prisoner everybody else is running free
The longer I wait to get the courage up the more I keep feeling down
I guess if I don't start swimming then I'm guaranteed to drown

CHORUS
Oh, but how am I to know
If I don't give it a go again
I'm just too afraid
And I feel like I'm over my head
I can't start thinking about what happened last time
If I give it a try once more
Oh, I guess I've got to love like I've never been hurt before

BRIDGE
What am I to say
If things start to break again
What am I to do
If she tells me it's no use
If there's one thing I can't take
It's hearing I don't love you

CHORUS
Oh, but how am I to know
If I don't give it a go again
I'm just too afraid
And I feel like I'm over my head
I can't start thinking about what happened last time
If I give it a try once more
Oh, I guess I've got to love like I've never been hurt before
Oh, I guess I've got to love like I've never been hurt before
Oh, I guess I've got to love like I've never been hurt before
