Girl, don’t you worry
I won’t bother you no more
I won’t call on the phone, trying to catch you alone
Or mill around your back door

It’s been a year
And it’s been a good year
Though not quite every bit just as good, I admit,
As when I called you dear

You told me to move on, whatever that’s supposed to mean
I’m just trying to be strong and forget and I think I’ll succeed
Cause I barely remember how your hand on my chest used to feel
You’re just a distant fading dimestore paperback memory

And I’ve given up hope
I no longer believe
In your love and laughter and forever after
I stopped dreaming that dream

Don’t life move in curious ways?
I don’t know where this will lead
But I know what I see and I know what is real
and you’re not here with me

You told me to move on, whatever that’s supposed to mean
I’m just trying to be strong and forget and I think I’ll succeed
Cause I barely remember how your lips on mine used to feel
You’re just a distant fading dimestore paperback memory

You told me to move on, whatever the hell now that’s supposed to mean
I’m just trying to be strong and forget and I think I’ll succeed
Cause I barely remember how makin’ love to you used to feel
You’re just a distant fading dimestore paperback memory

Girl, don’t you worry
I won’t bother you no more
