I keep checking this phone to see
If maybe tonight you're thinkin''bout me
But your number's not there
But your number's not there

Sometimes truth aint the same as reality
I'm lying to myself thinking you love me
But you - you just don't care
No you - you just don't care anymore

PRE CHORUS:
How many nights go by
Where I try to kill the thoughts but they just won't die
Forgetting you is harder than I thought
Forgetting you is harder than I thought
 
CHORUS:
I need to throw these memories away
Put 'em in the junk drawer - nothing left to say
But forgetting you is harder than I thought
But forgetting you is harder than I thought

I need to stop looking back at the clock
I wanna sail forward - be thankful what I got
But forgetting you is harder than I thought
But forgetting you is harder than I thought
 
VERSE:
Friends all say I'm outta my mind
Waiting on you is wasting my time
Ain't it bad, yeah, I know they're right
Ain't it bad, yeah, I know they're right.

I keep thinking if I wait a bit longer
Time will heal and the heart will get stronger
But it's gettin' hard to hold on
Yeah it's getting hard to hold on

PRE CHORUS:
How many nights go by

Where I try to kill the thoughts but they just won't die
Forgetting you is harder than I thought
Forgetting you is harder than I thought
 
CHORUS:
I need to throw these memories away
Put 'em in the junk drawer - nothing left to say
But forgetting you is harder than I thought
But forgetting you is harder than I thought

I need to stop looking back at the clock
I wanna sail forward - be thankful what I got
But forgetting you is harder than I thought
But forgetting you is harder than I thought

BRIDGE:

I just wanted you to know
I just wanted you to know
That I didn't want to let go
That I didn't want to let go
 
I just wanted you to know
I just wanted you to know
That I didn't want to let go
That I didn't want to let go
 
Na na na na na na na na na
And/or repeat chorus

CHORUS:
I need to throw these memories away
Put 'em in the junk drawer - nothing left to say
But forgetting you is harder than I thought
But forgetting you is harder than I thought

I need to stop looking back at the clock
I wanna sail forward - be thankful what I got
But forgetting you is harder than I thought
But forgetting you is harder than I thought
