(verse)
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.
