It Keeps Right on a Hurtin'

It Keeps Right on a Hurtin' - Albert West

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'd lay your head

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 passin' 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
