Lyrics

Four Letter Word

[Intro]

Love is a four letter word

[Verse 1]

Don't say it's over

Push me away then you pull me closer

Maybe we're just addicted to the pain 'cause

We've been here before

So why do we keep coming back for more?

Just tell me

[Chorus]

Why you do the things you do?

Why you've gotta be so complicated?

Look at what you put me through

Maybe your heart was built for breaking

I need to walk away

It's more than I can take

The way you say it just makes me hurt

Love is a four letter word

Love is a four letter word

[Verse 2]

I was just fine

Before you robbed my heart like a gold mine

I know I need to find another way 'cause

We've been here before

I know I can't do this anymore

Just tell me

[Chorus]

Why you do the things you do?

Why you've gotta be so complicated?

Look at what you put me through

Maybe your heart was built for breaking

I need to walk away

It's more than I can take

The way you say it just makes me hurt

Love is a four letter word

Love is a four letter word

[Bridge]

The way that you love me feels like hate

So I must be crazy if I stay

[Chorus]

Why you do the things you do?

Why you've gotta be so complicated?

Look at what you put me through

Just tell me...

Why you do the things you do?

Why you've gotta be so complicated?

Look at what you put me through

Maybe your heart was built for breaking

I need to walk away

It's more than I can take

The way you say it just makes me hurt

Love is a four letter word

Love is a four letter word

Love is a four letter word

Love is a four letter word

Love is a four letter word
