Dottie West - Love Is Just a Pain in the Heart Lyrics

(Red Lane - Dottie West)

Everybody's been in love at one time or another
Including me not so long ago
And everybody's been hurt in one way or the other
Let me say that I am one of those.

How can others stay together
And our love fall apart
To some love may be pretty but to me
Love's just the pain in the heart.

I suppose there are many who lived a life like mine
In a world of love with everything to gain
A chosen few have been showered with true love everlasting
But here I am I'm left out in the rain.

I just can't understand it
I guess I'm not too smart
But all I've known is heartache so to me
Love's just the pain in the heart...
