I just can't get it through my head
You love another now instead
Can't make myself believe we're really through
I'm walkin' up and down the hall
Talkin' to a silent wall
I'll lose my mind before I'm over you

I think I've almost lost my mind
I think about you all the time
I'm goin' crazy, yes I know
And I don't have far to go
The way you treat me is a shame
But I keep lovin' you the same
I'll lose my mind before I'm over you

(Instrumental Break)

I keep your letters I should burn
I wear your ring I should return
But there's a million foolish things I do
It makes me cry, but you would laugh
To know I kiss your photograph
I'll lose my mind before I'm over you

I think I've almost lost my mind
I think about you all the time
I'm goin' crazy, yes I know
And I don't have far to go
The way you treat me is a shame
But I keep lovin' you the same
I'll lose my mind before I'm over you

I'll lose my mind before I'm over you
