Hurting Each Other - The Carpenters

Original Album: A Song for You (1972)

No one in the world

Ever had a love as sweet as my love

For nowhere in the world

Could there be a boy as true as you, love

All my love, I'd give gladly to you

All your love, you'd give gladly to me

Tell me why, then, oh, why should it be that

We got along

Hurting each other

We got along

Hurting each other

Making each other cry

Hurting each other

Without ever knowing

Why...

Closer than the leaves

On a weeping willow, baby, we are

Closer, dear, are we

Than the simple letters A and B are

All my life, I could love only you

All your life, you could love only me

Tell me, then, oh, why should it be that

We got along

Hurting each other

We got along

Hurting each other

Making each other cry

Hurting each other

Without ever knowing

Why...

Can't we stop

Hurting each other

Gotta stop

Hurting each other

Making each other cry

Breaking each other's hearts

Tearing each other apart

[repeat until fade]
