It Only Hurts For a Little While The Ames Brothers (words by Mack David; music by Fred Spielman) Best selling record by The Ames Brothers (RCA Victor); revised in 1978 by Margo Smith (Warner Bros.) (verse) It's all over town that we've parted, And ev'ryone knows that we're through; They see me alone broken hearted Crying the blues for you. (refrain) It only hurts for a little while, That's what they tell me, That's what they say. It only hurts for a little while, Then all your heartaches will pass away. It's so easy to be smart With somebody else's heart, But I don't know how to start forgetting you, What can I do? It only hurts for a little while That's what they tell me, "Just wait and see." But I will hurt till you come back to me. From: Gloria "Montcomags"
