THE HURTIN' KIND
Before this over
Before its begun
You'll think of me like a river runs
Red, like wine
You're not the hurting kind
It's about trust and its about fate
How some things happen just a little too late
You're still doing fine
You're not the hurting kind
My love is real
Love is all I have to leave behind
You have everything
And you're not the hurting kind
I've seen 'em cry and I've seen 'em crawl
The hardest seem to have the furthest to fall
But each and every time
You're not the hurting kind

"You're not the hurting kind" is a nice line, and the melody is a good match for it.
These lines caught my eye too
I've seen 'em cry and I've seen 'em crawl
The hardest seem to have the furthest to fall
The change up at the end was a nice surprise.
In v1 I didn't these lines followed on well:
You'll think of me like a river runs
Red, like wine
the "like a ..." invites the listener to interpret the next line in terms of a river, but then it switches to wine instead.
Enjoyed my listen! 😁

Hey, this is a lovely song. Possibly your best imo. I can imagine this being worked into a bigger arrangement. As a demo it's absolutely fine. I like the sentiments too. I enjoyed this.😀
