Van morrison if hurts to want it so bad lyrics

It's a lot like bein' little

and wantin' a brand new toy.

It's a lot like bein' little

and wantin' a baby boy

to call brother,

and it hurts

when you want it

so bad. 



It's a lot like bein' a young boy

who cannot make the team.

It's a lot like bein' a young girl

who cannot help but dream

of her best friend's brother,

and it hurts

when you want it

so bad. 



When it's love

you've had and lost,

if that's the worst hurt

you've ever had,

waiting for a new love

to come along,

and maybe, baby,

[it's] just as bad. 



It's a lot like bein' a man

when you['ve] no one to call your own,

and it's a lot like bein' a woman

when you want to make a home

and be a mother,

and it hurts when you want it

so bad.

Hey, yeah. 



When it's love

you've had and lost,

that's the worst hurt

you've ever had,

waiting, waiting for a new love

to come along,

it may be, baby,

may be just as bad, Lord. 



It's a lot like bein' a man

when you['ve] no one to call your own,

and

it's a lot like bein' a woman

when ya' want

to make a home

and be a mother,

and it hurts

when ya' want it so bad.

When ya' want it,

want it so bad.

When ya', when ya', when ya', when ya', when ya', when ya',

when ya' want it.

When ya, when ya', when ya', when ya', when ya', when ya', when ya', when ya', when ya', when ya', when ya', when ya',

When ya, when ya', when ya', when ya', when ya', when ya', when ya',

when ya', when ya', when ya'
