Intro: #1. I cry myself to sleep each night wishing I could hold you tight. Life seems so empty since you went away. The pillow where you lay your head now holds my lonely tears instead. And it keeps right on a-hurtin’ since you’ve gone. It keeps right on a-hurtin every minute of the day. Every hour you’re away I feel so lone-ly. Oh I can’t help it I don’t think I can go on. Yes it keeps right on a-hurtin’ since you’ve gone. INTERLUDE: #2. They say a man should never cry but when I see you passing by my heart breaks down and cries a million tears. You broke my heart and set me free but you forgot your memory. And it keeps right on a-hurtin’ since you’ve gone. It keeps right on a-hurtin every minute of the day. Every hour you’re away I feel so lone-ly. Oh I can’t help it I don’t think I can go on. And it keeps right on a-hurtin’ since you’ve gone. OUTRO: Yes it keeps right on a-hurtin’ since you’ve gone.
