Born in pure innocence Born without fear She says "mommy what did I do wrong, To make you cry your angry tears?" Feeling dirty and ashamed Keeps making up excuses She's learned how to hide the pain But she can't hide the bruises anymore There's no light behind her eyes She's tryin' to find love in a strangers touch 14 years old and so alone Desperate for what she needs so much (Michael) She cries herself to sleep at night And prays she won't wake up... Love shouldn't hurt Love shouldn't scar But sometimes we can be so blind To the way things really are Love can be so unkind Truth is that hearts get broken every day But love should never hurt this way... Children having children And growing up too fast If you've never been shown love How can you give love back? Her newborn baby's cryin' It's more than she can stand She doesn't see the tragedy When she raises her own hand There's no light behind her eyes She doesn't realize what she has done Didn't think she was being so rough Little one won't you please wake up? CHORUS X2 ...But love should never hurt this way...
