Hurting Each Other Carpenters lyrics

No one in the world
Ever had a love as sweet as my love
For nowhere in the world
Could there be a boy as true as you love

All my love
I give gladly to you
All your love
You give gladly to me

Tell me why then
Oh why should it be that

[Chorus:]
We go on hurting each other
We go on hurting each other
Making each other cry
Hurting each other
Without ever knowing why

Closer than the leaves
On a weepin' willow baby we are
Closer dear are we
Than the simple letters "a" and "be " are

All my life
I could love only you
All your life
You could love only me
Tell me why then
Oh why should it be that

[Chorus]
[Repeat: x2]
Can't we stop hurting each other
Gotta stop hurting each other
Making each other cry
Breaking each other's heart
Tearing each other apart
