Lyrics
So get on with your life babyPlease let me get on with mineThese days and your ways are so painfulYou're just wasting all our precious time, ohhh
Since first I knew your nameI wasn't sure that you really caredSpent most of your time with the other boysAnd it's been all down hill from there
So get on with your life babyPlease let me get on with mineEach day brings a new confusionAnother way to break this poor heart of mine
I can't begin to count the times that I've told yaYou better change all your wicked waysBut I'm real sure whatever the numberAh it's the same as the times you laughed in my faceWon't somebody please wake me from this bad dreamI remember my grandmama told meThings ain't always what they seem
So get on with your life babyPlease let me get on with mineCause each day brings another confusionIt's about to break this poor heart of mineOhhhha, gonna lose my only mind, oh babyDon't you break this poor heart of mine
