I remember the blisters on the tips of my fingers
When I worked so hard
To learn to play that guitar
It was my passion
I wanted to be better
For myselfIt's not love if it doesn't hurt
I've heard this line
But I always disagreed
Because I had hoped the other
Love shouldn't hurt
Would be more true
But I am finding
Loving you hurts
But feeling your love does notYou have become my new passion
There are blisters on my heart
But you're healing me just as quick
It's a double edged blade
I love you
So I hurt
I want to run from the pain
But you love me
So it hurts more to run
I can't run
