Lyrics
Playing Hurt
Couldn?t believe my eyes when I walked through that door,
You were holding her tight on our dance floor.
Got a heartache the size of Texas,
But your never gonna see me jealous.
Putting aside my pain, I?m getting back in the game.
Chorus
I?m still playing, but I?m playing hurt
Did you think you could leave me face down in the dirt.
My game?s a little rusty, it?s been a while,
And you may see the tears behind my smile
?Cause I?m playing hurt.
Maybe I should go home watch me some late night flicks
Or drink a shot of Hemlock, ?cause Baby, I can?t fix
This heart that you broke when you let me down
But that ain?t my style I?m staying out on the town
Putting aside my pain, I?m getting back in the game.
Chorus
Bridge
You can?t be a winner sitting on the sidelines,
So I?m back in the game a little smarter this time.
Yeah, I?m playing hurt, but I?m doing fine.
Repeat Chorus and Tag
