I don't know if I can explain it
'Cause there's really nothin' different at all
The sun still burns, the earth still turns
& the winter still follows the fall
I knew that it wouldn't be easy
For my heart to find somebody new
But I never thought it would still be broken in 2
These years after you
They tell me time is a natural healer
It kinda smooths the pain away
But this hurt within hasn't yet given in
& it's been over 2000 days
I still remember the taste of your kisses
& your eyes that were beautifully blue
& I can still hear the sound of your voice
When you said we were through
These years after you
CHORUS:
(Years after, years after you)
I'm still cryin'
(Tears after, years after you)
I'm still tryin' to make it through
These years after you
There've been mornin's when I couldn't wake up
& evenin's when I couldn't sleep
My life will be fine for months at a time
Then I'll break down & cry for a week
'Cause when I told you I'd love you forever
I know you didn't think it was true
But forever is nothin'
Compared to some nights I've been through
In these years after you
(repeat chorus & fade)
'Cause there's really nothin' different at all
The sun still burns, the earth still turns
& the winter still follows the fall
I knew that it wouldn't be easy
For my heart to find somebody new
But I never thought it would still be broken in 2
These years after you
They tell me time is a natural healer
It kinda smooths the pain away
But this hurt within hasn't yet given in
& it's been over 2000 days
I still remember the taste of your kisses
& your eyes that were beautifully blue
& I can still hear the sound of your voice
When you said we were through
These years after you
CHORUS:
(Years after, years after you)
I'm still cryin'
(Tears after, years after you)
I'm still tryin' to make it through
These years after you
There've been mornin's when I couldn't wake up
& evenin's when I couldn't sleep
My life will be fine for months at a time
Then I'll break down & cry for a week
'Cause when I told you I'd love you forever
I know you didn't think it was true
But forever is nothin'
Compared to some nights I've been through
In these years after you
