It Hurt Me Too
Connie Van Dyke Lyrics

(Hurt me too) Every time she broke your heart it hurt me (Hurt me too) oh, yes it did
Her pain of watching him getting hurt by his previous partner was real and deep.

I should laugh and say I told you so (told you so)
She could have warned him earlier that his previous partner would leave him, so, she should mock him for not seeing that coming.

I could have told the whole wide world That she'd leave you sad and blue (sad and blue)
She could have made other people aware of his sadness and pitiful condition due to his previous partner, had she been more malicious.

I could laugh and say, oh it's good for you 'Cause I knew she would hurt you
She could have been happy about his pain, as she was well aware of his previous partner's intention to hurt him.

(I knew she would hurt you) Oh, I knew she would hurt you (I knew she would hurt you) Oh, and every time she hurt you Well, don't you know it hurt me too (hurt me too) oh, yes it did (hurt me too)
She was not just a spectator but an empathetic friend who shared his sadness every time his previous partner hurt him.

I should say that you had it a-coming to you (coming to you) when you walked out and you Turned your back on me (turned your back on me)
She could have blamed him for his previous partner leaving him, for abandoning her when he chose to be with his previous partner.

I pleaded baby, I know, please don't go 'Cause I knew she would hurt you
Even though she knew his previous partner was going to hurt him, she begged him not to leave her.

(I knew she would hurt you) I had a feeling she would hurt you (I knew she would hurt you) Oh, and every time she hurt you Don't you know it hurt me too (hurt me too) Oh yeah, yeah, yeah (hurt me too)
She had an intuition about his previous partner hurting him and every time it happened, it pained her as well.

She said she had you dancing on a string As far as love goes You were just another fling
His previous partner only saw him as a casual fling and did not consider his feelings while playing with them.

I may be a fool, I mean to love you like I do Ah, but don't you realize that Even fools have feelings too? (feelings too)
She acknowledged that her love for him could be seen as foolish, but she still loved him and had feelings for him.

So baby, come back and let me dry The tears from your eyes 'Cause I would never hurt you (I would never hurt you) Now you know I'd never hurt you (I would never hurt you) Because now if I ever hurt you Oh, don't you know it would hurt me too (hurt me too)
She assured him that she would never hurt him and wished to be there for him to wipe his tears, because, now if she ever hurt him, it would pain her as well.

Every time she broke your heart it hurt me (hurt me too) oh, yes it did
She reiterates her point about how much his previous partner's actions hurt her too.
