lyrics

Can't seem to find sleep tonight
Lots of things left untied
My mind is on the edge
Can't get the thought of you out of my head

We used to laugh we used to sing
We used to dance happily
Then things got just a little mixed up
Don't want to dwell on that stuff
That's why I'm singing

Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba, Da, Ba, Ba, Da

Don't know what I was going to say
Can't catch those words they just slip away
Don't know what I was going to do
but I'm better off without you
