If I ever stop hurtin' I'm gonna try one more time
If I ever get over this girl that's on my mind
I'm gonna keep looking for a girl who's true and kind
If I ever stop hurtin' I'm gonna try one more time

This is not the first time I have had a hertache
This is not the first time I have loved in vain
I keep hoping that someday I'll find a good girl
Who won't leave me with a heart so full of pain
If I ever stop hurtin'...
[ steel ]
If I ever stop hurtin'...
