According to the liner notes of the _Brill Building Sound_ box set, this
was originally intended for Neil Sedaka, who even got as far as recording
his own voice over the instrumental track. Wonder if the track was sped
up from F (or slowed down from G) to better accommodate Gene's range?
"It Hurts To Be In Love"
(Howard Greenfield - Helen Miller)

Verse 2:
How long can I exist
Wanting lips I've never kissed
She gives all her kisses
To somebody else
She thinks I'm just a friend
Though it hurts I must pretend
The only way to keep her
Is keep it to myself

Coda (repeat to fade):
F# B F#
It hurts to be in love
D#m F#
Day and night
D#m F#
Night and day
It hurts to be in love
Night and day
Day and night
