If It Doesn't Hurt - Black Casino and the Ghost

It doesn't hurt right now I can breathe again There's change in the air I can see and hear It doesn't hurt right now And I can talk about it The worst of the shape is the least of my fears Could you ever see Just you and me Alone in this room Or does he make it three? I'm sorry sounds so small Compared to what's true I lied to myself When I lied to you It doesn't hurt right now I can hear what you had to say I can forgive but forget not yet It doesn't hurt right now But we both know it will again Ghosts of the past based on regret Needs are like rivers You can't stop their will A heart that goes hungry Demands to be filled I see that now I was lonely and I took the bait But I long to be filled by you, it's never too late It doesn't hurt right now So what does that say about me I learned to be known a long time ago To soften the blow It doesn't hurt right now I hurt right now And I know what you want from me Oh, won't you give it to me I moved out of my heart A long time ago Long time ago

Me loving you Was so easy to do Now since you left me I'm trying to make it through Every song I hear Everywhere I turn There's a moment I had shared with you All the pain I thought it would never go away Oh but now the rain has stopped pouring down I see a new day coming round It doesn't hurt anymore Knowing I live my life without you Every day I grow stronger Cause I don't need you any longer And now I'm ready to face a brand new world It doesn't hurt me Safe in your arms Talking all night long I still remember But now I'm not holding on I won't be afraid When love finally calls Cause now I know the pain Of losing it all All my life All I ever wanted was your love Oh but since you took it all away I've been waiting for today It doesn't hurt anymore Knowing I live my life without you I built a wall so tall So you're never gonna touch me And now I'm ready to take what I deserve Cause it doesn't hurt me I used to cry when I heard your name I couldn't take it much longer But when I knew you'd never come back again I had to make my heart stronger It doesn't hurt anymore Knowing I live my life without you Every day I grow stronger Cause I don't need you any longer It doesn't hurt anymore Knowing I live my life without you I built a wall so tall So you're never gonna touch me It doesn't hurt It doesn't hurt no more Knowing I live my life I live my life without you Everyday I grow stronger It doesn't hurt anymore Baby, baby I don't need you no more I grow stronger I built a wall so tall So tall baby...

7: 42 in the morning 8 seconds before it all sinks in Put your best face on for the world And fake another smile and just pretend But you're just puttin' off the pain Nothing's ever really going to change So let it hurt, let it be Let it take you right down to your knees Let it burn to the worst degree May not be what you want but it's what you need Sometimes the only way around it Is to let love do its work and let it hurt Yeah, let hurt 3: 28 in the morning Counting up the spaces between the rain You're getting used to the rocks at the bottom Your heart goes numb but the lonely stays the same And that's price you're bound to pay And there's really nothing anyone can say Oh, there's only just one way So let it hurt, let it be Let it take you right down to your knees Let it burn to the worst degree May not be what you want but it's what you need Sometimes the only way around it Is to let love do its work So go on yeah, let it hurt You might just find your better for it When you let go and you learn To let let it hurt, let it bleed Let it take you right down to your knees Hey, sometimes the only way around it Is to let love do its work (let love do its work) So go on (go on) and let it hurt Oh, let it hurt 7: 42 in the morning 8 seconds before it all sinks in

It was an unbelievable night She was an unremarkable girl You may not call it poetry But it changed my world It was an unforgettable dawn She was an indisputable fact Even if I could have I might not have it back It's an unexceptional day She's an unavoidable truth Uncompromised elation Suspended since my youth It's an unforgivable lie I have nothing in my defence There can be no forgiveness To caution this descent It wasn't in a dream A film or on TV This was really happening Happening to me Though I may protest Suggest I never knew The ghost comes back to haunt me The ghost of sex and you I held her hand outside the hotel Kissed her mouth in the back of the car Whether fact or fantasy I knew we'd gone too far I feel her breath on the back of my neck She's lying naked here on the floor Wrap the sheet around her Disappear beyond the door It wasn't in a dream A film or on TV This was really happening Happening to me Though I may protest Suggest I never knew The ghost comes back to haunt me The ghost of sex and you It was an unbelievable night She was an unremarkable girl You may not call it poetry But it changed my world The ghost of sex and you It was an unforgettable dawn She was an indisputable fact Even if I could have I might not have it back Sex and you It's an unexceptional day She's an unavoidable truth Uncompromised elation Suspended since my youth Sex and you It's an unforgivable lie I have nothing in my defence There can be no forgiveness To caution this descent The ghost of sex and you

When you're awake the things you think Come from the dream you dream Thought has wings, and lots of things Are seldom what they seem Sometimes you think you've lived before All that you live today Things you do come back to you As though they knew the way Oh the tricks your mind can play It seems we stood and talked like this, before We looked at each other in the same way then But I can't remember where or when The clothes you are wearing are the clothes you wore The smile you are smiling you were smiling then But I can't remember where or when Some things that happened for the first time Seem to be happening again And so it seems that we have met before And laughed before, and loved before But who knows where or when.

All of me Why not take all of me Can't you see I'm no good without you Take my lips I wanna lose them Take my arms I'll never use them Your goodbye left me with eyes that cry How can I get along without you You took the part that ones was my heart So why not, why not take all of me All of me Come on get all of me Can't you see I'm just a mess without you Take my lips I wanna lose them Get a piece of these arms I'll never use them Your goodbye left me with eyes that cry How can I ever make it without you You know you got the part Used to be my heart So why not, why not take all of me
