Cover art for It Hurts To Be In Love lyrics by Gene Pitney

This is a powerful song. It is about a person (male) who is deeply in love with someone who just doesn't love them. It is sad how no matter what one does sometimes other people just won't accept them. In the end, you just have to stay strong and stay true to yourself. Remember that no one is immune to rejection. The person who once rejected you has been or will be rejected by someone too. That person could be you...sometimes that same person realizes how wrong they were and comes running back to you. This song and the theme of it is very similar to a song called "Everybody Play The Fool" by a classical R&B group called The Main Ingredient.
