Everything's the way that you left it baby
The broken heart, the tears and the pain
I set your plate on the table each night
Just to keep from going insane
I've tried whiskey and women
Till it didn't matter
If I knew my right from my wrong
Then I made a decision
To live with your memory
Pretending that you wasn't gone.
I Gave Up On Trying To Get Over You
I done everything that a man can do
To soften the pain when your love was through
I Gave Up On Trying To Get Over You.
All of your clothes I hung
Back in the closet
Next to the bed beside me
I put your pictures up on the wall
Just the way that they used to be
I threw lipstick and perfume
All over the dresser
And cigarette butts on the floor
It's hard to conceive
Anyone could believe
That you don't live here anymore.
I Gave Up On Trying To Get Over You.
