You always hurt the one you love
The one you shouldn't hurt at all
You always take the sweetest rose
And crush it 'till the petals fall
Now, excuse me there, Mr. Carl Grayson, I'll tell this little girl all about this here situation. Now, honey child, you know that you always seems to break the...eh well the very kind of sort of our heart, with a hasty word, that..eh..that you just can't seem to recall. Honey child, honey lamb, honey baby, honey doll, honey pie, now, then if this boy - now, mind you, I says...eh IF this here boy done broke your heart last night, honey child, honey lamb, honey baby, honey doll, honey pie, it's because he loves you the most of all.
You always hurt the one you love
The one you shouldn't hurt at all
You always take the sweetest rose
And crush it 'till the petals fall
You always break the kindest heart
With a hasty word you can't recall
So if I broke your heart last night
It's because I love you most of all
