Eddie Rabbitt

Songwriter: Thom Schuyler

Producer: David Malloy

I dont know if I can explain it
Cause theres really nothing different at all
The sun still burns
The earth still tuns
And the winter still follows the fall
I knew that it wouldn't be easy
For my heart to find somebody new
But I never thought
It still would be broken in two
These years after you

They tell me time is a natural healer
It kinda smoothes the pain away
But this hurtin' within
Hasnt yet given in
And it seems like a million days
I still remember the taste of your kisses
And your eyes that were beautifully blue
And I can still hear the sound of your voice
When you said we were thru
Years after you

Chorus
Years after years after you
I'm still cryin'
Tears after years after you
I'm still tryin' to make it thru
These years after you

There've been mornings when I couldn't wake up
There've been evenings when I couldn't sleep
Ooo, my life will be fine for months at a time
Then I'll break down and cry for a week
Cause when I told you I'd love you forever
I know you didn't think it was true
But forever is nothing
Compared to some nights I've been thru
These years after you

Chorus x2

I'll never get over you

Chorus
