Sidney Barnes - I Hurt on the Other Side

I hurt on the other side baby
I hurt on the other side

I see my friends everyday
As I pass them on the street
I smile then tell a joke or two
And I smile at everyone I meet

Tell them all the happy things
They only see me to that
They only see the happy
They don't see the other half

But if they just turn me over
They're gonna see it
They're really too soft to me
I hurt on the other side yeh
But I cry and I'm alone
Said I hurt on the other side yeah
But I keep my tears at home

Girls I've won girls I've lost
But really I don't care
At least that's what I make them think
Cause my secrets never share

Once there was a special girl
Who I loved I loved her so
Then one day she ran away
But I can't let my feelings show

But if they just turn me over
They're gonna see it
They're really too soft to me
And I hurt on the other side
But I cry and I'm alone
Said I hurt on the other side yeah
But I keep my tears at home

An actor's life is not for me
Oh I play the part so well
Oh my heart is broken down inside
No one could ever tell

They look at me
They don't see
The sad and lonely lie
If they took a second look
They'd see my smile is upside down

But if they just turn me over
They're gonna see
They're really too soft to me
And I hurt on the other side yeah
But I cry a ton of tears
Said I hurt on the other side yeah
But I keep my tears from you

Hurtin' on the other side
I cry a ton of tears
Said I hurt on the other side yeah
But I keep my tears from you"
