Home Is Where the Hurt Is

[Verse 1]
We're well known in every honky tonk in town
Not a night goes by that we don't make the rounds
People wonder why we choose to live this way
Why don't they ever stay at home I hear them say

[Chorus]
But home is where the hurt is
'Cause love doesn't live there anymore
Home is where the hurt is
That's why we don't stay at home much anymore

[Verse 2]
What was once our happy home has come to be
A place to fuss and fight and disagree
Our lonely house with wall to wall regret
And these bright lights somehow help us to forget

[Chorus]
'Cause home is where the hurt is...
That's why we don't stay at home much anymore
