  • Welcome aboard. You're not alone coming from the UK (me too).

    Nice words, though it would help if you posted them here if you want some critique. Have a look at some of the other posts to get the idea. The Ai works well. It sounds very familiar though. It's how they train it!

    A good song to my ears.😀

  • Welcome to the forum Dan!

    Classic modern country sound you've got going there.

    The lyric sounds pretty smooth from what I could hear. And "Hurts to love you" is definitely a country title!

  • Hey all, i forgot to post the lyrics, not sure why lets call it a senior moment.


    Verse 1:

    I've been driving down this old dirt road,

    With your memory riding shotgun close,

    Got the radio blaring our favorite song,

    But it don't feel right with you gone too long.

    I still see your face in every star,

    Can't outrun the ghost of who we are,

    I try to smile, but it ain't no use,

    'Cause every mile just brings back the truth.


    Pre-Chorus:

    It’s a battle every day just to keep on moving,

    The way you left me torn, there's no improving,

    But even when it's bad, girl, I can't deny,

    I'm still loving you with every goodbye.


    Chorus:

    It hurts to love you, but I can't let go,

    Like fire in my veins, you're burnin' me slow,

    You broke my heart, but I'm still holdin' on,

    Even when it's wrong, it feels so strong.

    You’re the whiskey in my blood, a never-ending bruise,

    No matter how it cuts, girl, I’ll never choose,

    To walk away, to walk away...

    'Cause it hurts to love you, but it hurts worse not to stay.


    Verse 2:

    Every bar in town knows my name,

    They've seen me drowning in this pain,

    But when the neon fades, and the last call's done,

    Your shadow still wins, yeah, it’s the only one.

    I could pack my bags, try to disappear,

    But every road leads back to here,

    Guess some things are just meant to be,

    Even if it’s killing me.


    Pre-Chorus:

    It’s a battle every day just to keep on moving,

    The way you left me torn, there's no improving,

    But even when it's bad, girl, I can't deny,

    I'm still loving you with every goodbye.


    Chorus:

    It hurts to love you, but I can't let go,

    Like fire in my veins, you're burnin' me slow,

    You broke my heart, but I'm still holdin' on,

    Even when it's wrong, it feels so strong.

    You’re the whiskey in my blood, a never-ending bruise,

    No matter how it cuts, girl, I’ll never choose,

    To walk away, to walk away...

    'Cause it hurts to love you, but it hurts worse not to stay.


    Bridge:

    They say time heals, but they don't know,

    How deep your love still haunts my soul,

    I'm torn apart, but I’d do it again,

    ‘Cause losing you, girl, that’s a bigger sin.


    Chorus (Extended):

    It hurts to love you, but I can't let go,

    Like fire in my veins, you're burnin' me slow,

    You broke my heart, but I'm still holdin' on,

    Even when it's wrong, it feels so strong.

    You’re the whiskey in my blood, a never-ending bruise,

    No matter how it cuts, girl, I’ll never choose,

    To walk away, to walk away...

    'Cause it hurts to love you, but it hurts worse not to stay.

    Yeah, it hurts worse not to stay...

    But I’ll love you anyway.


    Outro:

    Yeah, it hurts to love you,

    But I'm loving you anyway.
