Nothing Hurts Now

There was a time, you make me believe, that I'd receive
Something that would hold, & wouldn't leave me cold
& 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

There was a time, I made you smile, & for a while
I was beautiful to you, I was beautiful like you
But these things often pass, & 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

If you've really been in love with somebody, whether you just thought or you had a mutual thing or whatever, in a sort of bittersweet way how much it can hurt to be in love with somebody, and how that doesn't really change anything if it doesn't work out.
