It's been years
Years since someone new
Years since the tears
Years since youIt's taken countless tissues
It's taken gallons of ice cream
Nights of sudden I miss you's
It's taken a dreamA 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 imagineI tore my heart out for you
And you watched it bleedI 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 anymoreBut the hurt intensifies
And my pillow catches my tearsNot today, not today
It's been years
Years since someone new
Years since the tears
But I still can't get over you
