Hurt is a four letter word, so is love
All the pain and confusion
Love? I'm just no sure of
Everyone has left and some have reappeared
Love is a four letter word, so is fear
So how do we know what love is true and which is not
We may never know
My loves from before have simply forgot
Love is a four letter word so is tear
Some cry everytime they look in the mirror
They remember what once was and wonder what their future will be
Love is only just a four letter word
So we'll just have to wait and see
