lyrics

WHY DO YOU HURT

WE WERE DRAWN TO EACH OTHER
WITH A NEED TO DISCOVER
CALLED IT LOVE THEN YA PUSHED ME ASIDE
WAS IT MY OVERREACTION OR YOUR SELF PROTECTION
YOU NEVER LOOK FOR THE TRUTH INSIDE
SO AFRAID OF YOURSELF AND SO INSECURE
IT’S CONFUSION AND HURT YOU DENY
ON A TIGHT ROPE OF EMOTION SO UNAWARE
YOU’VE GOT TO LOOK TO YOURSELF AND DECIDE

WHY DO YOU HURT THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE?
WHO WANT TO SEE YOU HAPPY
IS IT CAREFUL PLANNING OR LACK OF TRUST
THAT MAKES YOU FEEL THIS WAY

OH YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT YOUR DOIN
WHEN YOUR ANGER’S CONNECTED TO LOVE
DRIFTIN APART ALONE IN THE DARK
WITH EXPECTATIONS THAT NO MAN CAN FILL
BUT HARD ENOUGH TO KISS AND PLAY
CLOSE ENOUGH TO PUSH AWAY

WHY DO YOU HURT THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE?
WHO DON’T DESERVE YOUR RAGE
YOU BETTER FIGURE IT OUT GIRL
WHAT YOUR MADE OF
BEFORE THEY ALL GO AWAY
WHY DO YOU HURT?
OH WHY DO YOU HURT?

ALL THE SILKY SOFT STANCES
THEY LEFT NO FINGER PRINTS
UNDETECTED RAW GLANCES
BAD CIRCUMSTANCES
I JUST DON’T BELIEVE WHAT YOU SAY BABY

WHY DO YOU HURT THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE?
WHO WANT TO SEE YOU HAPPY
IS IT CAREFUL PLANNING OR LACK OF TRUST
THAT MAKE YOU FEEL THIS WAY



WHY DO YOU HURT THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE?
WHO DON’T DESERVE YOUR RAGE
YOU BETTER FIGURE IT OUT GIRL
WHAT YOUR MADE OF
BEFORE THEY ALL GO AWAY
WHY DO YOU HURT

(WHY DO YOU HURT)
OH SAY YA YA
(WHY DO YOU HURT)
THE PEOPLE THAT YOU LOVE
(WHY DO YOU HURT)
ALL THE PEOPLE THAT YOU LOVE
(WHY DO YOU HURT)
OWW…
(WHY DO YOU HURT)
WHY DO YA PEOPLE?
WHY DO YA PEOPLE?
(WHY DO YOU HURT)
ALL I SAY YA YA YA
(WHY DO YOU HURT)
ALL I SAY YEAH
(WHY DO YOU HURT)
NA NA NA NA NA NA NA

about

Brad Brooks Oakland, California

Brad Brooks is that rare quadruple threat of writer, player, singer, and performer.
His songs combine the melodic sensibility of Elvis Costello, the best instincts of Wilco and Brian Wilson, the orchestral sophistication of Queen, along w/the Stonesy/Bowie gritty edges of rock/soul.
"If you're anything like me, you need some good news. Brad Brooks' music is that good news”……….Wayne Kramer
