Only Hurts Me When I Laugh
Words and Music by
Rufus Stone and Pierre Tubbs ©
Verse 1
Out of the blue you said goodbye
You left on a grey and empty sky
With no conversation I’m so bored
And nobody calls here anymore
Chorus
It hurts me when I laugh
Now I’m laughing through the tears
But my heart is strong, so I’ll carry on
Till the funny side appears
It only hurts me when I laugh
Cos when I do I start to choke
Although I try a smile, it only lasts a while
Cos I still don’t get the joke.
Verse 2
Where are the friends we used to meet
They’re walking on by across the street
Life is so lonely without you
I think on the good times but when I do
Chorus
It hurts me when I laugh
Now I’m laughing through my tears
But my heart is strong, so I’ll carry on
Till the funny side appears
It only hurts me when I laugh
Cos when I do I start to choke
Although I try a smile, it only lasts a while
Cos I still don’t get the joke.

Perhaps I’ll pack my bags and run off too?
And find a place where I’ll get over you
Chorus
It hurts me when I laugh
Now I’m laughing through my tears
But my heart is strong, so I’ll carry on
Till the funny side appears
It only hurts me when I laugh
Cos when I do I start to choke
Although I try a smile, it only lasts a while
Cos I still don’t get the joke
Repeat Chorus till fade
