I thought that the mercy of time gone by
Would eventually ease the pain
I thought that that glimmer was in your eye
'Cause forever's what you had on the brain
But damn it if you didn't break the skin
Over my chest and put your hand on my heart
Then you ripped it out, still beating in your hand
Just like the last time I played this part
But there ain't no getting over you
Beauty like yours is a dream come true
Baby tell me you love me
I don't care if it's true
'Cause there ain't no getting over you
Well I was stone-dead wrong about time curing pain
But I found something else that I tried
Poured it straight down my throat like an unclogged drain
I can't say it was the first time I cried
"Damn it all!" I screamed as I looked around the room
To meet a face that might could share in my lonesome
But I was all alone under a bright-ass moon
That told me I was a drunk fool and then some
'Cause there ain't no getting over you
Hearts like mine are, to a fault, too true
Break mine again
This time I want you to
'Cause there ain't to getting over you
Baby I ain't got a prayer
And you don't give a good goddamn
I ain't coming up for no fresh air
I've come to peace with who I am
When there ain't no getting over you
Love ain't a dead end that you run into
It's a long-ass road
With some terrible views
No there ain't no getting over you
