Why Do Happy Memories Hurt So Bad

Lyrics

[Intro] Ooh-ooh-ooh... [Verse 1] Baby's on the run, there she goes Somethin' that I've done, I suppose Made baby cry and now I'm all alone I hope by-and-by baby will come back home When I remember the happiness we had [Chorus] Why do happy memories hurt so bad? Why do happy memories hurt so bad? [Verse 2] Think about the good times, let the bad times fade That's a good philosophy, but I'm afraid Good memories only feel good with someone to share them But when you're alone, it's much harder to try to bear them A thought that makes you smile can still make you sad [Chorus] Why do happy memories hurt so bad? Why do they hurt so bad? Why do they hurt so bad? Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh... [Saxophone solo] [Verse 3] Occupy your time, they tell me, get yourself a hobby They mean well, but I'm not about to let them rob me Of the only way I can be with you at all It's here in my memory and I've got total recall Even when parting is sweet, it's still sad [Chorus] Why do happy memories hurt so bad? Why do they hurt so bad? Why do happy memories hurt so bad? Hurt so bad, hurt so bad [Outro] Hurt so bad, memories, memories Memories, memories Hurt so bad...
