Don’t much care
No one to talk to
Left it all behind
Seems like yesterday
Tryin’ my best to move on
Too much heartache
Sorrow, broken promises
No gettin’ used to
Life without you
Barely livin’ day to day
Oh baby, tryin’ to forget you
Our happy times together
Even the moments in between
Testin’ us, me and you
Just barely livin’ day to day
I kept your last letter
Read it often, so sad and blue
How you walked in the rain
Cried away all memories
Why I’m livin’ just day to day
Now all I have–this song
Lingering memories, how we were together
Spinning out of control
No idea it would ever stop
Oh baby, still livin’ just for you
