Can you take me telling you the [bad word] 
When I know the situation is shadiest 
But my girl, will you... 
Believe when I say I knew that you be tripping 

So I slept out in my ride in the driveway 
So before we get into the things that we shouldn't do 
Imma need your undivided attention 
Cause it's fantasies and reality 
Baby which one are we living in, oh 

When it hurts, will we still be 
The same two lovers 
All over each other 
When it hurts, will we still see 
What we got together 
Promise that we'll never 
Never ever be 
Temporary (Not Another) 
Ordinary (Uh uh) 
We should change people's definition of love 
So forget what you heard 
The only way that this will work 
Is if you love me when it hurts 
Can you love me when it hurts 

I don't wanna blend in 
With every other relationship that be falling in and out girl (Not us) 
I knew that I tripped 
Cause every time we argued 
I think about having someone on the side girl 

So before we get into the things that we shouldn't do 
I'm a need your undivided attention 
Cause it's fantasies and reality 
Baby which one are we living in, oh 

When it hurts, will we still be 
The same two lovers 
All over each other 
When it hurts, will we still see 
What we got together 
Promise that we'll never 
Never ever be 
Temporary (Not Another) 
Ordinary (Nuh uh) 
We should change people's definition of love 
So forget what you heard 
The only way that this will work 
You gotta love me when it hurts 

Babygirl we gotta face it 
There'll be times that we let each other down 
And on the days that you ain't feeling me 
Will you be able to stick around 
Cause anything worth having's worth fighting for 
If we really want this thing to work 
We gotta go to war 
Girl, I'm in this thing 
I mean really in this thing 
But through the tears will you still be here 

When it hurts, will we still be 
The same two lovers 
All over each other 
When it hurts, will we still see 
What we got together 
Promise that we'll never 
Never ever be 
Temporary (Not Another) 
Ordinary (Nuh uh) 
I wanna change people's definition of love 
So forget what you heard 
Cause the only way that this will work 
Is if you love me when it hurts (When it hurts) 

When it hurts (When it hurts) 
Do you love me when it hurts 
Girl when it hurts (When it hurts) 
When it hurts (When it hurts) 
Do you love me when it hurts 
When it hurts (When it hurts) 
When it hurts (When it hurts) 
Do you love me when it hurts 
When it hurts (When it hurts) 
When it hurts (When it hurts) 
Will you love me when it hurts
