There was a time you made me believe   That I'd receive   Something that would hold   And wouldn't leave me cold      And there was a line you made me cross   So the two of us   Would have the strength to bare   The crosses we couldn't share      But nothing hurts now that didn't hurt before   So I won't pretend   That it was the end of the world   'Cause nothing hurts now, no      There was a time I made you smile   And for a while   I was beautiful to you   I was beautiful like you      But these things often pass   And for you, they just wouldn't last   So I was first to know   When you had to go      But nothing hurts now that didn't hurt before   So I won't pretend   That it was the end of the world   'Cause nothing hurts now      No nothing hurts now that didn't hurt before   So I won't pretend   That it was the end of the world   'Cause nothing hurts now, no nothing hurts now
