It Only Hurts When I Laugh

(Kostas/Marty Stuart)

Oh you won't see me smile again no not for a while
'Cause way down here on lonely street there's heartaches by the mile
I try to hold my head up and forget about the past
But my heart recalls and the teardrops fall
'Til I break down and laugh

Oh I cried, cried, cried when you left me
Oh I tried, tried, tried to forget your memory
But when I see your photograph it tears my heart in half
And it only hurts me baby when I laugh

I think I'm going crazy look what you've done to me
A victim of your reckless ways is all I've come to be
The jukebox in the corner knows excatly what to play
Singing the blues and born to lose while I laugh the hurt away

Oh I cried, cried, cried when you left me
Oh I tried, tried, tried to forget your memory
But when I see your photograph it tears my heart in half
And it only hurts me baby when I laugh

And when I see your photograph it tears my heart in half
And it only hurts me baby when I laugh
Yes it only hurts me baby when I laugh
