Now weand've been friends girl for quite a while
Iand've never been the kind for begginand' and pleadinand'
But i can tell by your hazy smile
All of his lies youand've been finding are heavy on your mind
He broke your heart and he took your pride
Will you ever love again?
Though you try you donand't believe it
Come over here talk to me a while
Girl if you tried you would find that
Someone like me simple and free
I could change your mind
Iand'll love you in places he couldnand't find
Girl donand't you see for the chance
Iand've been waiting for you to let me
Love the hurt away
(thatand's all i wanna do, baby)
Love the hurt away
If you ever did, girl you need me now
You donand't need the complications of running to a stranger
So iand'm coming over and iand'll stay a while
Taking my time and'till i find that sparkle in your smile
Like a fatherand's shoulder or a motherand's arms
Girl iand've always been the one
For strength and understanding
The rain will stop, the clouds will be gone
Girl if you tried you would find that
Youand're someone like me, simple and free
Weand're two of a kind
I can love you in ways no one has ever tried
Girl donand't you see for the chance
Iand've been waiting for you to let me
Love the hurt away
Love the hurt away
(if you give me the chance baby i swear iand'm gonna love ya)
Love the hurt away
(for so many years iand've been waiting for this night, baby)
Love the hurt away, love the hurt away
I been there for you and you for me
Better friends weand'll never find
Nobody really knows you (knows you knows you)
No baby not the way i do, no (you know itand's true oooh)
We could miss an opportunity for what weand've both been trying to find
And girl itand's time i told you (told you told you)
And all i ever really really needed or
I ever really wanted was to love you
Love the hurt away
Love the hurt away
Love the hurt away
Love the hurt away
Oh, love
Ad lib until fade
