Dwight Yoakam - It Only Hurts When I Cry lyrics

Chorus:

The only time I feel the pain

Is in the sunshine or the rain

And I don't feel no hurt at all

Unless you count when teardrops fall

I tell the truth 'cept when I lie

And it only hurts me when I cry

You couldn't tell it by this smile

But my recovery took awhile

I worked for days and nights on end

Just to walk and talk again

You can't believe the time it takes

To heal a heart once it breaks

Chorus:

Oh maybe every now and then

I have a small heartache again

You wouldn't know to look at me

There's tiny scars that you can't see

It was a struggle to survive

I'm probably lucky I'm alive

Chorus:

I tell the truth 'cept when I lie

And it only hurts me when I cry
