It Doesn't Hurt Right Now

(album: Picking Up The Pieces - 2015)

[Rodney Crowell:]
It doesn't hurt right now
I can breathe again
There's change in the air I can see and hear
It doesn't hurt right now
And I can talk about it
The worst of the shame is the least of my fear

[Jewel:]
Could you ever see
Just you and me
Alone in this room
Or does he make it three?
I'm sorry sounds so small
Compared to what's true
I lied to myself
When I lied to you

[Rodney Crowell:]
It doesn't hurt right now
I can hear what you had to say
I can forgive but forget not yet
It doesn't hurt right now
But we both know it will again
Ghosts of the past feast on regret

[Jewel:]
Needs are like rivers
You can't stop their will
A heart that goes hungry
Demands to be filled
I see that now
I was lonely and I took the bait
But I long to be filled by you, it's never too late

[Rodney Crowell:]
It doesn't hurt right now
So what does that say about me
I learned to be numb a long time ago
To soften the blow
It doesn't hurt right now

[Jewel:]
I hurt right now

[Rodney Crowell:]
And I know what you want from me

[Jewel:]
Oh, won't you give it to me

[Rodney Crowell:]
I moved out of my heart

[Jewel & Rodney Crowell:]
A long time ago

[Jewel:]
A long time ago
Long time ago
