The fire that burns deep down in me..the pleasure 
                                       G
and pain that aches constantly..that's love..
                   D

The love that you know, it step in and steal..

the joy from your heart..it seems so unreal.

That's love..it's the real true thing.
           A                G                 D
Well, it's hard to believe, it hurts to be in love.

If you see the tears fall from my eyes..you have to 

be in love to know the reason why.
      G
Cause you're into things, that I'll never feel,

Although your arms are holding me so tight..the sadness 

you feel..it doesn't seem right.

It's hard to believe, it hurts to be in love.
