[Written by Marty Gold and Al Alberts Jr]
Tell me why, though I try to forget
Tell me why, why I think of you yet
I know I'll never be free
What has happened to me
Tell me why, when we danced until three
Tell me why, why my heart couldn't see
I never dreamed of romance
Never gave it a chance
When I think of how you looked that day
In your gown of silk and lace
Should have known the day you came my way
That this is the time and the place
Tell me why I keep fooling my heart
When I know it was love from the start
Why don't we give it a try
If you know, tell me why
(And when I think of how you looked that day)
In your gown of silk and lace
(Should have known the day you came my way)
That this is the time and the place
Tell me why I keep fooling my heart
When I know it was love from the start
Why don't we give it a try
If you know, tell me why
If you know....
Why don't you tell me why

It hurts to be in love
When the only one you love
Turns out to be someone who's
Not in love with you
It hurts to love her so
When deep down inside you know
She will never want you
No matter what you do
And so you cry a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Ah, I die a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Day and night, night and day
It hurts to be in love this way
How long can I exist
Wanting lips I've never kissed
She gives all her kisses
To somebody else
She thinks I'm just a friend
Though it hurts I must pretend
The only way to keep her
Is to keep it to myself
And so I cry a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Oh, I die a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Day and night, night and day
It hurts to be in love this way
---- Instrumental Interlude ----
And so I cry a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Oh, I die a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Day and night, night and day
It hurts to be in love this way
It hurts to be in love
Day and night, night and day
It hurts to be in love
Night and day, day and night
It hurts to be in love
Day and night, night and day
