It
only hurts when I Cry (AK
201) Joe Valvo (Dwight Yoakam) 1990
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER
Circle Left
The only
time I feel the pain
Is in the
sunshine and the rain
Left Allemande, DoSaDo her
Left Allemande, Weave the Ring
Unless you
count when teardrops fall
Swing and whirl and Promenade her
I tell the
truth except when I lie
It only
hurts me when I cry
FIGURE
Heads Square Thru count 4 now
Round that lady DoSaDo
Swing Thru and let the Boy Run Right
Bend the Line, Right and Left Thru, turn your girl
Pass the Ocean, Recycle round
you go
Swing and whirl, Promenade her
I tell the
truth except when I lie
It only hurts me when I cry
ORIGINAL LYRICS
The only time I feel the pain
Is in the sunshine or the rain
And I don't feel no hurt at all
Unless you count when teardrops fall
I tell the truth 'cept when I lie
It only hurts me when I cry
You couldn't tell it by the smile
But my recovery took awhile
I worked for days and nights on end
Just to walk and talk again
You can't believe the time it takes
To heal a heart once it breaks
The only time I feel the pain
Is in the sunshine or the rain
And I don't feel no hurt at all
Unless you count when teardrops fall
I tell the truth 'cept when I lie
It only hurts me when I cry
Oh maybe every now and then
I have a small heartache again
You wouldn't know to look at me
There's tiny scars that you can't see
It was a struggle to survive
I'm probably lucky I'm alive
The only time I feel the pain
Is in the sunshine or the rain
And I don't feel no hurt at all
Unless you count when teardrops fall
I tell the truth 'cept when I lie
And it only hurts me when I cry
I tell the truth 'cept when I lie
And it only hurts me when I cry
