It Keeps Right On A-Hurtin’ lyrics

[Verse 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 empty dreams instead
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone

[Chorus]
It keeps right on a-hurtin' every minute of the day
Every hour you're away, I feel so lonely
And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone

[Verse 2]
They say a man ain't supposed to cry
But when I see you passing by
My heart breaks down and cries a million tears
The pillow where you lay your head
Now holds my empty dreams instead
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone

[Chorus]
It keeps right on a-hurtin' every minute of the day
Every hour you're away, I feel so lonely
And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone
Yes, it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone
