Christina Perri - hurt

I always feel blue
And you're like a wave of Beatles songs and yesterdays
Or Central Park on Saturdays, my happy place (ha-ha-ha-ha)
I turned out the lights
I listened to you breathin' on me low and sweet
It's the only place I wanna be, and it's scarin' me (ha-ha-ha-ha)

I, I tried
I didn't wanna fall like this
You made me risk it all like this
'Cause you, yeah, you knew
You knew that I would break easily
So you could take a piece of me

You make high, you make me cry
Keepin' me up all night, in the fire
Don't think my arms could hold any tighter
You make me sink, what do I do with this?
Lovin' you is the best and the worst
Why does somethin' so beautiful hurt?

My head's in a fog
And you're rollin' in, smellin' like a memory
Of some place that I've never been, and you're sinkin' in (ha-ha-ha-ha)

I, I lied
When I said I wouldn't fall like this
Love shouldn't be at all like this (ha-ha-ha-ha)
Why do I
Let you take me all the way?
You kill me with all the love we make

You make high, you make me cry
Keepin' me up all night, in the fire
Don't think my arms could hold any tighter
You make me sink, what do I do with this?
Lovin' you is the best and the worst
Why does somethin' so beautiful hurt?

Why does love and pain feel like the same
When I'm with you?

You make high, you make me cry
Keepin' me up all night, in the fire
Don't think my arms could hold any tighter
You make me sink, what do I do with this?
Lovin' you is the best and the worst
Why does somethin' so beautiful hurt?
