Lyrics

I close my eyes and find you
In the dreams I have at night
As you lay across my memory
Like a shadow in the light
It's amazing what I tell myself
That I don't care at all
I think I've gotten over you
Then I take two steps and fall
When all along it was me who was wrong
And I'm just too blind to see
Of all the things that touched my life
You've been the best for me
And when I wake up
There's an empty bed to make up
It isn't easy when you break up
With someone you love like you
So what can you do?
And when I rise up
There are tears that fill my eyes up
And it's too late for me to wise up
'Cause I was wrong and now we're through
So what can I do?
I must have tried a hundred ways
Trying to forget
I wind up with the same two things
A glass and cigarette
A man's a fool who fools himself
Who hides behind his pride
I know too well from tears that fell
And all the nights I cried
Amazing what you think of
When you sit around at night
With drinking hands I sit there
As I think of lack of light
And when I wake up
There's an empty bed to make up
It isn't easy when you break up
With someone you love like you
What can you do?
And when I rise up
There are tears that fill my eyes up
And it's too late for me to wise up
'Cause I was wrong and now we're through
What can I do?
So when I wake up
There's an empty bed to make up
It isn't easy when you break up
With someone you love like you
