Song：Hurt Me Tomorrow
Artist：Tiffany Alvord

This ain't a good time
But when is it ever¹
I know the perfect² time
And baby that's never
So don't you dare³ leave me now
Throw my heart⁴ on the ground⁵
Cause⁶ tonight ain't the night for sorrow⁷
But you can hurt me tomorrow, okay⁸
It's on you...
Aha aha here we go
I used⁹ to be a strange¹⁰ fruit
Billy holiday, then you got¹¹ me by my roots¹²
Sent the pain¹³ away
I tried to question our direction¹⁴, that was¹⁵ my mistake¹⁶
I had¹⁷ to ask you where we going¹⁸ baby, Marvin Gaye
I used to do it like Sinatra, do it my way
Now I'm the Fuji, you're my Lauryn Hill that got away
I felt we had it at last love, Etta James
But now I'm wondering¹⁹...
If what I heard it's true²⁰
Then I know what you came²¹ to do
Love may be blind²² but I'm looking at you
So before you pull²³ the trigger²⁴, did²⁵ you ever consider²⁶
This ain't a good time
But when is it ever
I know the perfect time
And baby that's never
So don't you dare leave me now
Throw my heart on the ground
Cause tonight ain't the night for sorrow
But you can hurt me tomorrow,
You can hurt me
You can hurt me
You can hurt me
You can hurt me
You can hurt me
Tomorrow
You can hurt me tomorrow
If you can take a rain check on a stormy night
Then I will love you till²⁷ you old, like you're Betty white
You can hurt me any other day, pick²⁸ a fight²⁹
But not on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday night
And not the weekend either³⁰ 'cause I got a song to write
I promise³¹ I'm a hear you out when the time is right
Let's have a talk, August 7, 2099
At your place or mine?
This ain't a good time
But when is it ever
I know the perfect time
And baby that's never
So don't you dare leave me now
Throw my heart on the ground
Cause tonight ain't the night for sorrow
But you can hurt me
Hey why you turn around and walk away
I know you got a lot to say
And I really want to talk about it
Just not today
Is there an instrument to measure all the heart ache
A looking glass so we can see where all the magic went
I need a button, I can push so we can start again
Cause boy you bring me to my knees, Nancy Kerrigan
This ain't a good time
But when is it ever
I know the perfect time
And baby that's never
So don't you dare leave me now
Throw my heart on the ground
Cause tonight ain't the night for sorrow
But you can hurt me tomorrow,
You can hurt me
You can hurt me
You can hurt me
You can hurt me
You can hurt me
Tomorrow
You can hurt me tomorrow
