If It`s The Last Thing I Do — текст песни (Patty Loveless)

Pain falls around me
Like a shadow in the night
And it hangs like a curtain
Til morning brings light
I`ve been hurting so long
I`m starting to wonder
If I`ll ever leave you behind
I know I`ll forget you
It`s a matter of time

If it`s the last thing I do
I`ll sleep without dreaming
Your memory won`t wake me
To cry in the dark
When my heart isn`t beating
It might finally quit aching
I`ll get over you
If it`s the last thing I do

You`re my love of a lifetime
The one I knew would last
And I know I`ll spend my future
Livin` in my past
But there will come a time
When my tears have all fallen`
And I can keep livin` for today
And this heartache will release me
And I can fly away

If it`s the last thing I do
I`ll sleep without dreaming
Your memory won`t wake me
To cry in the dark
When my heart isn`t beating
It might finally quit aching
I`ll get over you
If it`s the last thing I do

I`ll get over you
If it`s the last thing I do
