Do You Really Want to Hurt Me Lyrics

[Chorus]
Do you really wanna hurt me?
Do you really wanna make me cry?
Precious kisses, words that burn me
Lovers never ask you why

[Verse 1]
In my heart the fire's burning
Choose my colour, find a star
Precious people always tell me
That's a step, a step too far

[Bridge]
If it's love you want from me
Then take it away
Everything's not what you see
It's over again

[Chorus]
Do you really wanna hurt me?
Do you really wanna make me cry?
Precious kisses, words that burn me
Lovers never ask you why

[Verse 2]
You hear them talking, but believe me
If it's true, you don't know
This boy loves without a reason
I'm prepared to let you go
[Bridge]
If it's love you want from me
Then take it away
Everything's not what you see
It's over again

[Verse 3]
Give me time to realize my crime
Let me love and steal
I have danced, inside your eyes
How can I be real?
How can I be? Ah
How can I be real?

[Outro]
Do you really wanna hurt me?
Do you really wanna make me cry?
Do you really wanna hurt me?
Do you really wanna make me cry?
Do you really wanna hurt me?
Do you really wanna make me cry?
Do you really wanna hurt me?
Do you really wanna make me cry?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
