Douglas Closson: Lyrics
Hurtin' You
(Music and Lyrics by Douglas Closson © 1986 © 2008)
You’ve got something hurtin’ you
That you won’t leave alone for awhile
Now I’ve seen you like this before
Looking like you lost a friend, but I’m right here
And you’ve got something hurtin’ you, don’t you
We think we know our hearts & understand what we must do
But parting brings a change of heart to play
And loosing love you lose a part of you
Now you got something hurting you, don’t you
Yes, you’ve got something hurtin’ you
Your dreams are on the ground
From where you’ve been that’s such a long way down
Sometimes eagles on the wind can’t find the strength to fly
And wait for better times and bluer skies
And you got something hurting you, Don’t you
(You’ve got something hurtin’ you, Don’t you)
Yes, you’ve got something hurting you
Your dreams are on the ground
From where you’ve been that’s such a long way down
But there’s a songbird deep inside of you
Aching to take wing
And sail on silver wings up in the sky
So spread your wings and fly, go on fly
‘cause I know you’re a dreamer
And your dreams can still come true
Yes I know that there is someone waiting for
A chance to give to all
Someone who is dreaming just like you
I know you’re a dreamer
(I know you have a dream)
And your dreams can still come true
(You’ve got to believe)
I know that there is someone waiting for
A chance to give to all
Someone who is dreaming just like you
I know you have a dream, you’ve got to believe
Yes, you got something hurting you, don’t you
