I Got Hurt (Trying to Be the Only Girl in Your Life)

Lyrics

I got hurt trying to be the only girl in your life I got hurt trying to be the only girl in your life Mama told me don't try When I said I was gonna be The girl who'd make you realize One love was all you need Looked like I was getting over When my hopes went tumbling over From a telephone conversation That hurt as I heard you say You kept telling her that I was just your friend As you whispered words of tenderness and said you'd call again I got hurt trying to be the only girl in your life I got hurt trying to be the only girl in your life I kept a secret from you thinking maybe things might change So I tried just a little bit harder but the end of love still came Now your mind is set on leaving but I find it hard believing My dreams won't come true when they're filled with so much love for you And everything I did, I did to bring you joy And if I died today on my grave they'd say "That girl sure love that boy" I got hurt trying to be the only girl in your life I got hurt trying to be the only girl in your life (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) So I dried my eyes and I walked away alone And get ready for the emptiness I feel when love is gone I got hurt trying to be the only girl in your life I got hurt trying to be the only girl in your life Mama said I've been hurt I got hurt trying to be the only girl in your life (How it hurt, hurt) I got hurt trying to be the only girl in your life
