Pain falls around me, like a shadow every night
And it hangs like a curtain, 'till the morning brings light
I've been hurting so long, I'm starting to wonder
Why 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 dreamin'
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 the the one love of a lifetime, the love I knew would last
And I know I'll spend my future, livin' in my past
But there will come time, when my tears have all fallen
And I can just keep livin' for today
And this heartache will release me, and let me fly away

If it's the last thing I do, I'll sleep without dreamin'
Your memory won't wake me, to cry in the dark
When my hear 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
