[Verse 1]
I remember the way you used to
Touch me all time
I told you how I was the luckiest man alive
And now I hear you showin' off your new boy
Frontin' like everything's all right
I'll be damned if I let you know
That I still find it hard to sleep at night

[Chorus]
Outside I'm smiling
Inside I'm crying
I'll just keep denying
'Til I get over you
Outside I'm smiling
Inside I'm crying
I'll just keep denying
'Til I get over you

[Verse 2]
Endless times I stayed up
All night waiting for you to call
Lying to myself
'Cause you aren't thinking 'bout me at all, ooh
My eyes are holding back the tears
My pride won't let you see me act a fool
'Cause I'll be damned if I let you know
That I still feel something for you

[Chorus]
Outside I'm smiling
Inside I'm crying
I'll just keep denying
'Til I get over you
('Til I get over you, 'til I get over you, baby)
Outside I'm smiling
Inside I'm crying
I'll just keep denying
'Til I get over you

[Bridge]
Can't forget the way we touched
(Every day, every night, baby)
And the way we used to make love
(I still remember how it feels)
But now it's over and you're gone
(I've got to say goodbye)
Because I know I can't go on without you

[Chorus]
Outside I'm smiling
Inside I'm crying
I'll just keep denying
'Til I get over you
Outside I'm smiling
Inside I'm crying
I'll just keep denying
'Til I get over you
Outside I'm smiling
Inside I'm crying
I'll just keep denying
'Til I get over you
Outside I'm smiling
Inside I'm crying
I'll just keep denying
'Til I get over you
Outside I'm smiling
Inside I'm crying
I'll just keep denying
'Til I get over you
Outside I'm smiling
Inside I'm crying
I'll just keep denying
'Til I get over you
