Love's Been Rough On Me Lyrics

Etta James Love's Been Rough On Me

They say time
heals the broken heart
days go by
and the healing starts

They say life,
life goes on
I came through
but I know they're wrong

I can't sleep
I can't give
I don't seem to be able
to get back on my feet

I can't run
I can't hide
and it's tearing me up
inside
oh have mercy baby
love's been rough on me

I had love
but it turned out wrong
I had faith
and when that was gone
well at least,
at least I had hope
when you left me hanging
at the end of my road

I can't sleep
I can't give
I don't seem to be able
to get back on my feet

I can't run
I can't hide
and it's tearing me up
inside
oh mercy baby
love's been rough on me
have mercy mercy baby
love's been rough on me
