I cry myself to sleep each night Wishing I could hold you tight Life seems so empty since you went away The pillow where you'd lay your head Now holds my lonely tears instead And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone It keeps right on a-hurtin' every minute of the day Every hour you're away I feel so lonely And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone They say a man should never cry But when I see you passin' by My heart breaks down and cries a million tears You broke my heart and set me free But you forgot your memory And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone It keeps right on a-hurtin' every minute of the day Every hour you're away I feel so lonely And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone
