| Well, I went and gave away my TV
|
| Told the man, «Cut off the phone»
|
| I put an ad in the paper, baby, gonna sell everything I own
|
| Done everything in the world I know, to try to make it through
|
| But there’s just no getting over you
|
| Well, I went and bought myself a new straw hat
|
| One eye pokin' under the brim, I bought myself a little seaside shack
|
| In case I might just want to swim
|
| Done everything I know in the world to try to shake these blues
|
| But there’s just no getting over you
|
| Well, I try and try but honey it ain’t no use
|
| Cry and cry, I just can’t turn you loose
|
| Why oh why, can’t I get you off my mind?
|
| You got that hook so far in baby, I gotta get you off my line
|
| Well, I got some transcendental meditation, baby
|
| And I’m taking up Japanese, I signed up at the cooking school
|
| I’m going to pick up on some hard cuisine
|
| Done everything in the world I know, to try to make it through
|
| But there’s just no getting over you
|
| Honey I, I tried and I tried baby it ain’t no use
|
| Cried and I cried but I just can’t turn you loose
|
| Why oh, why can’t I get you off my mind?
|
| Honey, you got that hook so far in, I just got to get you off my line
|
| Oh, I have much and I’m a fool for you baby, lay back in, stand on
|
| Now listen to this
|
| You know the way you do, honey
|
| Well, I just can’t make it over, can’t seem to make it baby
|
| No matter what I say or do baby, I can’t make it over, ooh
|
| Well, there’s just no getting over you, that’s a truth |
