The pain is hard
To overcome
When you know your heart
Has been undone
The hurt just seems to linger
Like a tooth ache that won't go away
The love you just lost
Was the love you thought would stay
Now you sit there thinking to yourself
Exactly where you went wrong
Knowing that once again
You're going to have to be strong
You tell yourself this is getting old
If this is what love is supposed to be
I hope the next time around
Love does me a favor and just forgets me
