Pain falls around me Like a shadow in the night And it hangs like a curtain Till morning brings light I've been hurting so long I'm starting to wonder If I'll ever leave you behind I know I'll forget you It's a matter of time If it's the last thing I do I'll sleep without dreaming Your memory won't wake me To cry in the dark When my heart isn't beating It might finally quit aching I'll get over you If it's the last thing I do You're my love of a lifetime The one I knew would last And I know I'll spend my future Living in my past But there will come a time When my tears have all fallen And I can keep living for the day When this heartache will release me And I can fly away If it's the last thing I do I'll sleep without dreaming Your memory won't wake me To cry in the dark When my heart isn't beating It might finally quit aching I'll get over you If it's the last thing I do I'll get over you If it's the last thing I do
