It's been years
Years since someone new
Years since the tears
Years since you

It's taken countless tissues
It's taken gallons of ice cream
Nights of sudden I miss you's
It's taken a dream

A dream of you
And it hurts more
Having to see images my brain has stored, has altered
To hurt me again
It hurts more
More than you can imagine

I tore my heart out for you
And you watched it bleed

I wake up to the sun shining
And a strange pang in my chest
I'm not supposed to love you
I can't feel this way anymore

But the hurt intensifies
And my pillow catches my tears

Not today, not today

It's been years
Years since someone new
Years since the tears
But I still can't get over you
