Story Behind The Song
Deliberately written with a minimal feel and as much space as I dared leave - hope that the emotional intensity is helped by the rambling - non-rhymed lyrics in the verse and the slightly amature vocal performance .

Lyrics
IT DIDN'T HURT
VERSE
I guess I look a little lonely
Sitting out here in the rain
But I was wandering if what you said was real to you
If if you felt it was just something you had to say
And I understand that things are not that simple
And I understand that you're the strong and silent type
But you've held your cards so close for so long now
Will it be worth it when you make your play
CHORUS
And I didn't mean to make the change by myself
'Cause it's such a long way to fall
And I said, don't worry baby
It didn't hurt at all
VERSE
And I know between us things aren't always easy
But at the moment things are always hard
And I didn't mean to sound like I had so many questions
hanging over me
But I need a little something while you find your way
And I know that I'm the one whose just too sentimental
But it feels so good to hold you now
You know I'll always take the blame for things that happen to us
'Cause to me you're worth your weight in gold
CHORUS
And I thought maybe we would be a little closr
But I know that's still your call
And I said, don't worry baby
It didn't hurt at all
SOLO
CHORUS
And I didn't want to make the change for myself
'Cause it's such a long way to fall
And I said, don't worry baby
It didn't hurt at all
It didn't hurt at all
