Whitney Houston - Why Does It Hurt So Bad Lyrics






[Chorus:]
Why does it hurt so bad
Why do I feel so sad
Thought I was over you
But I keep crying
When I don't love you
So why does it hurt so bad
I thought I had let you go
So why does it hurt me so
I gotta get you outta my head
It hurts so bad
Oh it hurts so bad baby

My life's been better
Since the day I left you boy
I must admit life's been kind to me
I went and did the things I said I would boy
I found someone who loves me for me
Haven't had much drama since the day that we split boy
My heart's never been more at ease
And when I think of all the things you put me through
Leaving you has been the best thing for me

[Chorus:]
So why does it hurt so bad
Why do I feel so sad
I thought I was over you
But I keep crying
When I don't love you
So why does it hurt so bad
Baby I thought I had let you go
So why does it hurt me so
I gotta get you outta my head
Hurts me so bad
Hurts so (yeah you do)
Hurts so (hurts me so)
Hurts so bad (did you know)
Hurts so (that it hurts me so)
Hurts so (so bad, hey hoh)

"Never again" that's what I said to myself
I never wanna feel kind of pain again boy
Just when I think it's over
Just when I think it's through
I find myself right back in love with you

[Chorus:]
So why does it hurt so bad oh baby
Why do I feel so sad
(thought I thought I) Thought I was over you
I keep crying
When I don't love you (when I really don't love you boy)
(oh no oh no oh no oh no it hurts so bad, oh tell me)
So why does it hurt so bad
I thought I had let you go (thought I could let you go)
You could
Gotta get you outta my head
Boy you hurt me so bad
Hurts so (yeah you do)
Hurts so (hurt me so)
Hurts so bad (hurts so)
Hurts so (sure you did)
Hurts so (make me wanna make me wanna shoop shoop)
Hurts so bad (hurt me so, gotta shoop now, hey hey hey hey)
Hurts so bad (Hurts me so)
Oh why, you hurt me so bad
Bad... (how bout that?)

    Somewhere between 351-347 time fram of this video, gave me me chills. EXCELLENT vocals skills.

    Check this out,,,, watch over me whit.... God bless your soul..., this is real life wrapped in a bow 🙌😍😍😍😍

  5. J.... S....

    She's one artist I regret never having seen a live performance.

  6. Y.... W....

    A of God's anointed voices

  7. S.... J....

    I miss her voice! Sometimes I cant listen to her it makes me cry! My grand baby asked me "Is she singing for God"? I said with a gift like what she was given I believe so!
    Miss u Nippy💖💕💖💕💖

  8. S.... B....

    💖💯

  9. B.... T....

    Why Whitney didnt get a standing ovation after this performance is still a mystery to mE

  10. C.... B....

    she knew she was a Bad Woman ...amazing

  11. C.... C....

    top of all!

  12. K.... O....

    She must be super hot on that stage! Timeless performance and better than the studio version.

    It still breaks my heart that these days are gone forever

  14. I.... L....

    True God given talent 4 us

  15. M.... ....

    January 2020 and I still miss her so much. The world is a lot less sparkly without her.

  16. D.... W....

    My go-to Whitney performance for those moments when I need to hear that emotional honesty and mourn her passing. Sublime.

  17. y.... s....

    THE VOICE

  18. J.... A....

    This women's talent is something else, omg!
    We didn't deserve you, Whitney. Continue to rest in peace.
    Thank you for the beautiful music you made.❤

  19. f.... ....

    She told/sang/sold a story love, pain, triumph, and a slight backslide as we as humans do. You can’t help but be engaged and feel all those emotions the late and GREAT Whitney Houston guides you through.

  20. J.... S....

    She felt this song

    J.... S....

    Whitney never sang a song if she didn't feel it! Whitney only sang songs that touched her heart & soul.

  21. T.... M....

  22. J.... L....

    i miss her so much

  25. K.... X....

    Cette interprétation là... P...!.. La meilleur.. Pourquoi ?.. C'est simple... Elle a ressenti ce poignard dans l'âme.. En plein cœur de son âme.. Ouais.. Elle a ressenti ça..
    Quand on a ressenti ça... C'est quoi ressentir ça..?... C'est quoi..?..
    C'est...à la seconde où vous êtes.. "poignardée".. À la seconde même.. Vous tombez..vous vous recroquevillez.. Vous refusez.. Tellement vous êtes.."saignée".. brutalement.. C'est un coup de foudre.. Une décharge... Vous n'êtes plus sur terre.. Vous êtes directement plongée dans un monde où ne règnent que vous...et votre douleur.... Le refus est tel que les larmes se déchaînent.. C'est ça ou vous étouffez avec les lames de rasoirs que l'on a fait entrer dans votre âme.. votre cœur... tout est en train de saigner.. à vif...les brûlures des lames.. Vous les sentez pas.. Non.. Mais par contre.. Vous sentez la brûlure du sel jeté... colle des millions de cristaux aiguisés qui entre un par un sans chaque pore de votre corps.. Vous redevenez un enfant.. Vous glissez au sol.. Votre tête dans vos bras.. Vis mains devant vos yeux.. Comme si vous pouviez empêcher les larmes de couler... Comme un instant de survie.. Un instinct de survie.. Prêt à imaginer une petite seconde que non.. Vous avez mal entendu.. Vu.. Mais la mémoire.. vous ramène.. Telle une vague géante vers la douleur.. La douleur.. Ce rocher aiguisé par des années de vagues salées..qui se croyait erodé.. au taquet.. Mais non.. L'érosion poursuit son chemin.. Alors après avoir hurlé en soi.. pour soi.. Non.. Non.. Non.. Vous vous relevez mais pas d'un coup.. Non.. Vous vous relevez.. comme on se relève après avoir été boxée.. Frappée.. Le corps est empli de bleus.. Alors vous vous remettez debout.. lentement.. Plus aucun mot ne sort de votre bouche.. Même les larmes ne ressemblent plus un torrent mais coulent déjà comme un ruisseau.. Votre esprit est prisonnier..Le cœur dans les vap...le corps fonctionne au ralenti.. Votre ouïe revient.. Tout comme la vue.. Vous constatez quelques dégâts.. sabs la "chute".. Une tasse de café renversée au sol.. Votre téléphone.. cassé.. Mais.. Vous regardez ça.. De trop loin encore.. Et tel un vaincu.. sur un champs ancestral.. Vous commencez à ramasser les morceaux.. Nettoyer le café par terre.. tel un automate.. vaincu.. Vous ramassez vos "armes"... Vous les regardez.. Yeux et tête penchés.. Comme si.. Ils allaient vous dire.. quelque chose...puis à l'issu d'un moment.. Vous levez lentement la tête.. Le regard.. dévitalisé.. triste.. mais.. acceptant la défaite.. Et là.. où certains feraient du pire...vous vous asseyez.. attendez que tout redevienne.... calme.. et vous échouée au bord d'une rive... déserte.. et vous commencez à lêcher vos plaies.. ce goût de "sang" sans votre bouche.. Ce sang font on vous a pris tout son fer...se régénère à vitesse petit V..

    Parfois.. Il arrive que la personne... auteur compositeur et musicien de cette douleur.. Une chanson triste et pleine de blues'notes.. essaie en se rendant compte de votre réaction.. revienne sur ce qui a provoqué ça.. et mente afin de vous aider peut-être... mais vous avez parfaitement... entendu.. vu.. Ça arrive..

    C'est à partir de ce moment là... que vous décidez de ne plus jamais lui ouvrir votre porte... et après.. et bien après.. C'est chacun gère à sa propre façon... Et chaque façon.. se respecte.. Chacune d'entre elles se respectent..et pour celui où celle qui a ressenti ça au moins une fois pour quelque motif que ce soit... Ici c'est de l'amour pour un homme dont il est question.. Cette interprétation a été ressenti.. C'est pourquoi.. Cette interprétation... est juste... Magnifique..

    Personne ne lèche les plaies.. Personne ne peut lêcher les plaies à la place de celui qui saigne.. Et il y a des personnes.. qui refusent qu'on les lui.. panse.. Car il n'est meilleur pansement que le sien propre.. pour ceux qui peuvent se panser seul.. Mais ça.. C'est une autre histoire...

    Magnifique interprétation de cette chanson.. Magnificent

    🌹🌹🌹✔️

  92. R.... F....

    Watching june 2019 legendary💛

  93. D.... G....

    I showed my kids (13 yrs old) this performance and told them most people said she was on decline. They mouth hit the floor and said well what did she sound like b4 if this is her decline... i said baby at her worst she beyond great! She received so much criticism when she was still out performing. Outsinging, out dressing, out standing, out looking better than everyone! People just needed someone to talk about

    D.... G....

    Exactly! Nice you learn your kids what real great singing/music is! Those that were/are bashing Whitney are nobodies who are jealous that they and/or their favorite singer will never reach the vocal divinity that Whitney had.

    D.... G....

    Preach!!!!!!!

  94. D.... G....

    How did i jump out my seat b4 she did? Lawd she could move a dead soul with that voice

  95. p.... ....

    She continues to slay beyond the grave. Incredible. The studio version is a snoozefest compared to this.
