Why do people hurt each other
Break each other's hearts like they were toys
Acting out like little children
Crimes of passion
Rules of love get broken every day
By people who never can see
Fools like you and me add another heart
To the heartbreak of love

Why do people go and break up
When they've got a love right in their hands
Why can't people learn to make up
Find a reason
Foolish hearts get broken every day
Oh, when will we finally see
Fools like you and me add another heart
To the heartbreak of love

Oh, when will we learn to hold on when it's rough
Our love should be strong enough
Oh, strong enough to make it through another night

They don't care, they don't care
When they love
They don't care, they don't care
When they love

Broken hearts get mended every day
Oh, when will we finally see
Girls like you and me
We add another heart to the heartbreak of love

Why do people hurt each other
Break each other's hearts like they were toys
It makes it hard to trust somebody
But still, we have to

Why do people go and break up
When they've got a love right in their hands
Why can't people learn to make up
Find a reason

Why do people hurt each other (I don't know)
And why is it so easy when they do
It makes it hard to trust somebody (makes it so hard)
But still, we have to

Why do people hurt each other
And why is it so easy when they do
