It's nice of you to say
We can still be friends
But what I need the most
Is never gonna be again
Sure I always knew we were worlds apart
But that don't help the sadness in my heart

It's gonna take a long time
To get you off my mind
Love like yours is hard to find
You'll never be mine
It's gonna take a long time

Oh when we were together
Life was so complete
An' then you met that girl
An' I could not compete
Oh you are like a magnet with your ways
An' that's what I remember everyday

It's gonna take a long time
To get you off of my mind
Love like yours is hard to find
You'll never be mine
It's gonna take a long time

L-L-L-Love is so complex
That's why I'm upset
Cause I'm no good for you
But still I can't forget
You can always wake the beast in me
That's the thing that never lets me be

It's gonna take a long time
To get you off of my mind
Love like yours is hard to find
You'll never be mine
It's gonna take a long time
