It's all over town that we've parted
And ev'ryone knows that we're through;
They see me alone broken hearted
Crying the blues for you
(refrain)
It only hurts for a little while
That's what they tell me
That's what they say
It only hurts for a little while
Then all your heartaches will pass away
It's so easy to be smart
With somebody else's heart
But I don't know how to start forgetting you
What can I do?
It only hurts for a little while
That's what they tell me
"Just wait and see."
But I will hurt till you come back to me
