You're fighting me off like a firefighter
So tell me why you still get burned
You say you're not, but you're still a liar
'Cause I'm the one that you run to first

Every time, yeah, why do you try to deny it
When you show up every night and tell me that you want me 
But it's complicated, so complicated

When it hurts, but it hurts so good
Do you take it? Do you break it off?
When it hurts, but it hurts so good
Can you say it, can you say it?
Your love is like, na na na na na na na
Your love is like, na na na na na na na
It hurts so good, na na na na na na na
Your love is like, na na na na na na na
It hurts so good

Every time that I swear it's over
It makes you want me even more
You pull away and I come in closer
And all we ever stay is torn

Baby, I don't know why I try to deny it
When you show up every night I tell you that I want you 
But it's complicated, so complicated

When it hurts, but it hurts so good
Do you take it? Do you break it off?
When it hurts, but it hurts so good
Can you say it, can you say it?
Your love is like, na na na na na na na
Your love is like, na na na na na na na
It hurts so good, na na na na na na na
Your love is like, na na na na na na na
It hurts so good

Wide awake through the daylight
Will you hold me like we're running a yellow light?
Reach for you with my hands tied
Are we dancing like we're burning in paradise?

When it hurts, but it hurts so good
Do you take it? Do you break it off?
When it hurts, but it hurts so good
Can you say it, can you say it?
Your love is like, na na na na na na na
Your love is like, na na na na na na na
It hurts so good, na na na na na na na
Your love is like, na na na na na na na
It hurts so good
