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 1234 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 1234 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 1234
