Here we go again,
hurting each other for no reason
wondering why we keep committing the same mistakes.
Sometimes I'm feeling
that it's more than just illusion
Tell me why we keep pretending
Are we so scared of give and take?
ohh...

CHORUS:
Why do we always hurt the ones we love?
(Why?)
Just when it seems we've finally made it through
Why can't we fly between the eagle and the dove?
Why do we always hurt the ones we love?

BRIDGE:

When you cry, the tears were falling like raindrops
From my eyes...why do we do hurt each other?
Tell me why we shouldn't try, are there some things we didin't share?
Why do I see you walking out right w/ me,
I see you standing here?

-INSTRUMENTAL-

...Tell me why...do we hurt the ones we love? (Why?) when we've finally made it through why can't we fly between the eagle and the dove?
Why do we always hurt the ones we love...ohh.
