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 lay your head Now holds my lonely tears instead And it keeps right on a-hurtin Since you've 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've gone They say a man should never cry But when I see you passing 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've 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've gone Yes, it keeps right on a-hurtin Since you've gone
