People say she’s only in my head Gonna take time but I’ll forget 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 Waking a friend in the dead of the night Just to hear him say it’ll be alright When you’re findin’ things to do to not 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 every word go up in smoke Tore all her pictures off the wall That ain’t helpin’ me at all
‘Cause when you’re talkin’ out loud to nothin’ but air You look like hell and you just don’t care You’re drinkin’ more than you ever drank You’re sinking down lower than you ever sank When you find yourself falling on your knees Shakin’ your fist, beggin’ please That’s when she’s more than a memory She’s more, she’s more
People say she’s only in my head Gonna take time but I’ll forget But when she’s in every minute of every day Every thought I think, every breath I take When she’s everywhere, when she’s everything She’s more than a memory
