Tryin' Not To Think of You
Tryin’ not to think of you
Tryin’ not to …
with all my might
But it’s not workin’ no matter what I do
Tryin’ not to give into…
thinkin’ of you tonight
Tryin’ hard to not remember when…
Think I’ve done it!
…but then…
I’m thinkin’ about you
Nothing but you…
All over again
How can you be
Such a constant
In my life
Why are you important to me
Why do you cause me
Such sadness and strife
Why can’t I leave
Things in the past
Sleep deeply thru’ the night
Cause I’m tryin’ not to think of you
Cryin’ not to think of you
…with all my might…
