Can'T Get Over You
Can't get over you
It's hard to go to bed at night,
knowing you're not there
The emptiness I feel inside,
is more than I can bear
I need to try and get some sleep,
'cause it's way past two A M
I must have counted a thousand sheep,
my mind's stuck in mayhem
My eyelids are a heavy load,
but I'm still wide awake
I'll keep pretending that you're here,
or else my heart will break
Bridge
That's the way it goes,
Will she come back?
Only God knows
Chorus
I can't get over you,
I just can't get over you...
Even when I have a dream,
your mem'ry crashes through
I've never ever felt such pain,
knowing things can never be the same
I just can't get over you.
I think back to the day we met,
and how your eyes would shine
Now I see they've lost their luster,
and we can't go back in time
I can't go out to the places,
that we used to go
I can't face familiar faces,
'cause I know that they all know
Bridge
That's the way it goes,
Will she come back?
Only God knows
Chorus
I can't get over you,
I just can't get over you...
Even when I have a dream,
your mem'ry crashes through
I've never ever felt such pain,
knowing things can never be the same
I just can't get over you.
I hope that you'll find everything,
that your heart desires
All that's left is to keep praying,
that my tears put out these fires
Chorus
I can't get over you,
I just can't get over you...
Even when I have a dream,
your mem'ry crashes through
I've never ever felt such pain,
knowing things can never be the same
I just can't get over you.
It's hard to go to bed at night,
knowing you're not there.
