Lyrics
I don't want your memory haunting me no more
Can't you see I've closed that door
I don't need your ruby lips on my mind
Or the way your eyes sparkle in the light
CH
Can't you tell I'm over you or will be pretty soon
By closing time I think I'll be freI got a jack-n-coke
a pack of smokes, the Captain and Jose
I think that's the way to a love lobotomy
If you're thinking that's too radical, you'd be wrong
I've hung on for way too long
I can't face the myself or the visions in my head
Of that night and the angry words we said
CH
I could go insane, hop a southbound train, take a swim in the deep blue sea
Consult me a Gypsy, but I'mm thinking whiskey'll do the trick for me
CH
