"It'll Feel Good When It Quits Hurting" lyrics

It'll Feel Good When It Quits Hurting

When you left me you thought I'll die
Sit at home alone and cry
And it hurts me
Because that you were right

I tell myself that I'll begin
To try and forgive you but then
I go and cry myself
To sleep at night

But something that my mama said
Keeps going around inside my head
And if I only knew that it was cool

The time and tears will wash away
This hurt I'm still in night and day
And I know that I'll get over you

Someone said one thing for certain
It'll feel good
When it quits hurting
And you know that mama's always right
And if this hurt will go away
Then I'll feel good again someday
And I won't ever want you
In my sight

And now you're spreaded all around
Just how you tore my playhouse down
And that's because
You broke my heart in two

You think that love was fun and game
And you don't even feel the shame
But someday it may all come home to you

And now you think you're flying high
And you don't care how much I try
What goes up will come back down someday

And if my mama's words are true
But then I won't be loving you
And I'll be glad I heard my mama say

Mama said one thing for certain
It'll feel good
When it quits hurting
And you know that mama's always right
And if this hurt will go away
Then I'll feel good again someday
And I won't ever want you
In my sight
