Lyrics Hurtin' Me, Hurtin' You - Steve Earle

Here I am
Out in the rain
I know I can't
Ever wash out the pain
I never meant
To be cruel or untrue
But I'm just hurtin' me
When I'm hurtin' you

Girl I won't say
I'm hurtin' more
I know that you've
Heard all that before
So go on believe
What you wanna believe
If I'm hurtin' you
Then I'm hurtin' me

I know it's hard
To keep hangin' on
You think that I hold all of the cards
I know you're wrong

And girl just like me
You ain't got a clue
I'm just hurtin' me
When I'm hurtin' you

You know I love you baby
God only knows that I do
I know I've been bad baby
I never, ever meant to be bad

I never meant to be cruel or untrue
But I'm just hurtin' me
When I'm hurtin' you

I know it's hard
To keep hangin' on
When you think that I hold all of the cards
I know you're wrong

And girl just like me
You ain't got a clue
I'm just hurtin' me
When I'm hurtin' you
I'm hurtin' me
When I'm hurtin' you
