Lyrics
I'm Not Hurting Anymore
Larry Carr / Randy Losoya (c) 2005
(Verse 1)
I turn the lights off, and I lay down
Sure is different here, without you around
I never imagined that you?d ever leave this place
I wasn?t prepared for all the pain I?ve had to face
My heart and mind have had a real tug of war
But I'm not hurting anymore
(Chorus)
The sun comes up on the same side of town
Those old movies of us still bring the curtain down
This is not the ending that I pictured in my mind
Well, I guess you could say that I?m getting by
I don?t hurt any less than I did the day before
But I?m not hurting any more
(Verse 2)
I've learned to accept, things I can't control
God give me the strength, have mercy on my soul
But I'm doin? better, every day I'm getting better
One day at a time, but they seem to last forever
(Bridge)
Like a bird who's lost her faith to fly
You can't talk her back up to the sky
(Instrumental Break)
(Chorus)
The sun comes up on the same side of town
Those old movies of us still bring the curtain down
This is not the ending that I pictured in my mind
Well, I guess you could say that I?m getting by
I don?t hurt any less than I did the day before
But I?m not hurting any more
