(Thank you baby)
I learned a lesson in my life but I learnt the hard way
I don't know why I used to fall in love with the wrong kind
Then I'd suffer so much pain but I only have myself to blame
Maybe you came in the nick of time to show me

Love doesn't have to hurt to feel good
It's such a revelation
With you I can be myself and always should
Don't have to cry
Don't have to fight
Don't have to die night after night
You showed me love, love
Love doesn't have to hurt to feel good
Thank you baby

(Thank you baby)
Darlin' now it seems to me like I 've always known you
But I still shudder when I think back on the lonely time
I used to keep all my feelings inside
From your eyes I have nothing to hide
Baby, you came in the nick of time to show me

Love doesn't have to hurt to feel good (yeah yeah)
It's such a revelation
With you I can be myself and always should
Don't have to cry
Don't have to fight
Don't have to die night after night
You showed me love, love
Love doesn't have to hurt to feel good

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Thank you baby

Lying here beside you feels so fine
Talking about everything in this heart of mine

Love doesn't have to hurt to feel good
It's such a revelation (such a revelation)
With you I can be myself and always should
Don't have to cry
Don't have to fight
And in your arms night after night
You showed me love, love
Love doesn't have to hurt to feel good
Thank you baby
