Don McLean - Love Hurts Lyrics






Love hurts, love scars, love wounds and mars
Any heart not tough or strong enough
To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain
Love is like a cloud, it holds a lot of rain
Love hurts, ooh-ooh, love hurts

I'm young, I know, but even so
I know a thing or two I learned from you
I really learned a lot, really learned a lot
Love is like a flame, it burns you when it's hot
Love hurts, ooh-ooh, love hurts

Some fools think of happiness, blissfulness, togetherness
Some fools fool themselves, I guess, they're not foolin' me
I know it isn't true, I know it isn't true
Love is just a lie made to make you blue
Love hurts, ooh-ooh, love hurts, ooh-ooh, love hurts

    Love Hurts, especially when you're on the receiving end of a convicted wife beater like Don MacLean.

    C.... ....

    Whoa, really!

    Fact check determines this claim to be: False.


    "The end of the marriage saw McLean arrested and charged with misdemeanor domestic violence stemming from an incident that occurred at his home in Camden, Maine. No other details from the incident were reported. Originally charged with six misdemeanors, McLean pleaded guilty to four as part of a plea agreement. One of the four charges, domestic violence assault, was dismissed. For the remaining three McLean paid around $3,000 in fines and was not sentenced to any jail time."


    Charged. Dismissed. Not convicted.

    I saw Don live in Wellington NZ I loved the show and the band

    Love certainly does hurts when you're married to a convicted wife beater like Don McLean. Nice version of the song though.

    Love Hurts
    Don McLean
    Album: Believers

    Love hurts, love SCARS, love wounds it mars
    Any heart not tough or strong enough
    To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain
    Love is like a cloud, holds a lot of rain
    Love hurts

    I'm young, I know, but even so
    I know a thing or TWO I learned from you
    I really learned a lot, really learned a lot
    Love is like a stove, burns you when it's hot
    Love hurts

    Some one's live for happiness, blissfulness, togetherness
    Somehow fool themselves, I guess, but they're not foolin' me
    I know it isn't true, I hope it isn't true
    Love is just a lie made to make you BLUE
    Love hurts, love hurts, love hurts
