Lyrics

It hurts to see you when you look my way
It hurts again when you look away
It hurts to hear your voice on the phone
It hurts to see you all alone
Why did you have to go and do me this way?
It hurts you, it hurts me, too
It doesn't have to be this way

Chorus:
It doesn't have to be this way
Gonna find another way
Gonna start right here today
It doesn't have to be this way

Does it hurt you when I look your way?
Does it hurt you when I look away?
Does it hurt you to hear my voice on the phone?
Does it hurt you to see me all alone?
Why did I have to go and do you this way?
It hurts you, it hurts me, too
It doesn't have to be this way

It's time we put this hurt away
It's time that we find a way
It's time we talk face to face, no phone
It's time we're together and not alone
Why did we have to go and do each other this way?
Stop hurtin' you, stop hurtin' me, too
It doesn't have to be this way
