Nothing Ever Hurts Like Love  
 
It's not a hospital or doctor that I need 
There is no blood to be seen 
But these wounds still bleed 
Believe me these wounds still bleed 
 
See I've lost teeth broke bones 
Been hurt by sticks and mental stones 
But nothing hurts like love 
Nothing ever hurts like love 
 
No bandage or plaster could heal me faster 
This pain is real - yet invisible 
You can't see it or touch it 
But my body continues to clutch it 
 
I tell you I have lost teeth broke bones 
Been hurt by sticks and real stones 
But nothing huts like love 
Nothing ever hurts like love 
 
No tablets or potions nor strange medical notions 
Can stop this way I feel 
After all this time and thought 
I still feel distraught 
 
These wounds are real 
These wounds are real 
 
This is pain I feel 
This is pain I feel 
 
I just need time to heal 
 
 
I don't think this needs much explanation. Except that under the advice from a friend who I quote said "some of your work would also make very good songs".  I decided to sit down and for the first time intentionally write a song rather than a poem. This was the result. So if you think it sucks then my excuse is that it was my first ever attempt. On the other hand if you think it's great then I will agree that you are right and that I am indeed with all probability a genius (only kidding).
