Love Hurts

it's been three weeks since i last saw her
but she came to me today with such a look i hated
i tried to be nice but she snapped at me
love hurts
i took her to the club last night
flirted a little bit
i got drunk
i see  her out of the club with some other guys
i said nothing
i'd rather move on
but love hurts
she just got out of a relationship
dated for two weeks
got a call from some guy
met other three two days back
with knives threatening to castrate me
one claiming to be engaged to this girl
it then hits me,love hurts
i'm afraid to love
and deep inside i feel like i'm caught up 
in a whirlwind
because i can't stop falling in love
but i'm yearning to get out of it
love hurts
