From the recording A Long Way From Graceland
Lyrics
Hope It Hurts
Your kisses were so sweet and tender
Your embrace kept me warm at night
Til I woke up to find your letter
You are leaving me for another guy
And I hope it hurts like hell
I hope it hurts like hell
If your leaving don’t kill me this bottle surely will
So I hope it hurts like hell
It’s been 2 weeks since you’ve gone
And I’m beat up, broken down and weak
If you come home I’ll give up the smokin’
But I ain’t givin up on the drink, nope
And I hope it hurts like hell
I hope it hurts like hell
If your leaving don’t kill me this bottle surely will
So I hope it hurts like hell
Time has drifted away
And I heard that he broke your heart
Now you want to come back to stay
But nothin’ gonna heal these scars
And I hope it hurts like hell
I hope it hurts like hell
If your leaving don’t kill me this bottle surely will
So I hope it hurts like hell
If your leaving don’t kill me this bottle surely will
So I hope it hurts like hell
Yeah, I hope it hurts like hell
I know it hurts like hell
