Oh what did you go and hurt me for?

Did you want to make me fall?

Oh why did you go and hurt me at all?

Do you want to hear me scream some more?

Or shout down the door?

Oh what did you go and hurt me for?

 

So you said that I met another edge

Of the being inside your head

It came out to play the other night

But don’t you think we’re all unhinged?

And it just depends on how we chose to swing

And release the energy that’s built up within

 

Oh what did you go and hurt me for?

Did you want to make me fall?

Oh why did you go and hurt me at all?

Do you want to hear me scream some more?

Or shout down the door?

Oh what did you go and hurt me for?

 

And then later on your gentle self

Held my head close to your chest

And we slept so peacefully

And we woke and we laughed

As we cleansed ourselves

And said we’d discuss the edge later on

 

Oh what did you go and hurt me for?

Did you want to make me fall?

Oh why did you go and hurt me at all?

Do you want to hear me scream some more?

Or shout down the door?

Oh what did you go and hurt me for?

 

So I guess I saw a side that’s new to me

And I’m sure it’s not the last I’m going to see

So however strange I’ll treat them tenderly

For that’s the edge that I love the best

The calm, kind loving one holding me to their chest

Who laughs so happily

 

So please, please, please don’t go and hurt me more

For I don’t want to scream or shout or run from door

But to live and to learn and to laugh a lot

And to make the most of what we have got

And to love for evermore

To love for evermore

To love for evermore
