Part-time Love

Trying to give up you is like trying to give up cigarettes
I fill up my mind with other things but you I can't forget
My need for you comes over me in overwhelming waves
The hole you left inside me has been empty now for days
Sometimes I feel so bad I have to lie down on my bed
While thoughts of you go racing round my head

Trying to live without you is just driving me insane
Nothing that I choose to do will occupy my brain
I don't know what the answer is but it is plain to see
You haven't got the decency to feel the same for me
If thinking 'bout you would make a difference and would make you mine
Thinking 'bout you wouldn't waste all my time

I'd like to think I'm over it that I have beat the worst
But I have got to see you yet and then resist you first
It would be nice to run away and not live through the pain
But I don't think that I could cope with not seeing you again
If I thought I could believe in everything you say
Then living part-time love would be o.k.
