People say she’s only in my head
It’s gonna take time, but I’ll forget
They say I need to get on with my life
What they don’t realize
Is when you’re dialing six numbers just to hang up the phone,
Drivin' cross town just to see if she’s home,
Wakin' a friend in the dead of night,
Just to hear him say it’s gonna be alright
When you’re finding things to do not to fall asleep
Cause you know she’ll be there in your dreams
That’s when she’s more than a memory
Took a match to everything she ever wrote,
Watched her words go up in smoke.
Tore all her pictures off the wall,
That ain’t helpin’ me at all
Cause when you’re talking out loud and nobody’s there,
You look like hell and you just don’t care,
Drinkin’ more than you ever drank,
Sinkin’ down lower than you ever sank,
When you find yourself falling down upon your knees,
Praying to God beggin’ Him please,
That’s when she’s more than a memory.
She’s more.
She’s more.
Cause when you’re dialin’ her number just to hang up the phone,
Drivin’ cross town just to see if she’s home,
Wakin’ a friend in the dead of night,
Just to hear him say it’s gonna be alright,
When you’re findin’ things to do not to fall asleep,
Cause you know she’s waiting in your dreams,
That’s when she’s more than a memory.
People say she’s only in my head,
It’s gonna take time, but I’ll forget.
