We said goodbye. Tried her hand at magic.
But we couldn't make us disappear.
Not a day goes by I don't wish I had you.
So in a way, I'm glad you're still here.
It's a bitter sweet victory.
Lovin' the ghost in front of me.
Now I-------- can't laugh, can't cry.
And I-------- can't run, can't hide.
What do I gotta do?
What do I gotta do to keep you?
What do I gotta do to keep you from doing this to me?
2nd Verse:
I wrote a couple of notes.
One in love, one in anger.
They're lying there dying in the dresser drawer.
Lived louder than my voice.
Struggled through a stranger.
He loved me until I loved you even more.
It's a bitter sweet victory.
knowing someone else wanted me.
Now I-------- can't laugh, can't cry.
And I-------- can't run, can't hide.
You get used to the pain, and numb to the sting
Till you can't feel anything.
3rd Verse:
You tried to explain
but I couldn't hear it.
As if your words were my tears.
Flowing freely, warm and quiet.
From the edges of my eyes and my ears.
Then all that disappears.
Now I-------- can't laugh, can't cry.
And I-------- can't run, can't hide.
Now I-------- can't laugh, can't cry.
And I-------- can't run, can't hide.
What do I gotta do?
What do I gotta do to keep you?
What do I gotta do to keep you from doing this to me?
