It Keeps Right On A-hurtin'

(words & music by j. tillotson)

I cry myself to sleep each night

Wishing i could hold you tight

Life seems so empty since you went away

And the pillow where you lay your head

Now holds my empty dreams instead

And it keeps right on a-hurtin'

Since you're gone



It keeps right on a'hurtin every minute of the day

Every hour you're away i feel so lonely

And i can't help it, i don't think i can go on

And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone



They say a man ain't supposed to cry

But when i see you passing by

My heart breaks down and cries a million tears

The pillow where you lay your head

Now holds my empty dreams instead

And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone



It keeps right on a'hurtin every minute of the day

Every hour you're away i feel so lonely

And i can't help it, i don't think i can go on

And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone

Yes, it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone
