I Gave Up (On Trying to Get Over You) Lyrics

Everything′s the way that you left it, baby
Broken heart, the tears and the pain
I set your plate on the table each night
Just to keep from going insane
I've tried whiskey and women till it didn′t matter
If I knew my right from my wrong
Then I made a decision to live with your memory
Pretending that you wasn't gone

I gave up on trying to get over you
I've done everything that a man can do
To soften the pain when our love was through
I gave up on trying to get over you

All of your clothes are hung back in the closet
Next to the bed beside me
And I put your pictures up on the wall
Just the way that they used to be
I threw lipstick and perfume all over the dresser
And cigarette butts on the floor
It′s hard to conceive anyone could believe
That you don′t live here no more

I gave up on trying to get over you
I've done everything that a man can do
To soften the pain when our love was through
I gave up on trying to get over you
I gave up on trying to get over you
