Tonight we drink to youth
And holding fast the truth
Don't want to lose what I had as a boy
My heart still has a beat
But love is now a feat
As common as a cold day in L.A.
Sometimes when I'm alone I wonder
Is there a spell that I am under
Keeping me from seeing the real thing
Love hurts
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends the bad things
Have a heart and try me
'Cause without love I won't survive
I'm fettered and abused
Stand naked and accused
Should I surface, this one-man submarine?
I only want the truth!
So tonight we drink to youth!
I'll never lose what I had as a boy
Sometimes when I'm alone I wonder
Is there a spell that I am under
Keeping me from seeing the real thing?
Love hurts
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends the bad things
Have a heart and try me
'Cause without love I won't survive
Without love I won't survive
Love hurts
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends the bad things
Have a heart and try me
'Cause without love I won't survive
Love hurts, ohhh-oh ohh
Love hurts
Without love I won't survive
Love hurts la-la-la-la-la-la oh
Love hurts
Without love I won't survive
i think the lyrics the and the melody of this song mean different things. the music makes you feel like its about a broken heart but lyrics are about missing any kind of real emotion ..even the pain of love seems a good thing fom inside a cage
lol. this song is awesome. because it's so right. it is saying that sometimes love hurting is a good thing because it can make you feel something. and plus i just love incubus, and it was one of my and my ex boyfriend's songs...lol
I absolutely LOVE this band and am a HUGE FAN of their music! They always have something profound to say. Their songs have meaning and gives to the world true artistic expression. A gift rarely received in todays music - thank you Incubus for being a truly gifted band and sharing it with us.
