I Gave Up (On Trying to Get Over You) Lyrics

David Allan Coe I Gave Up (On Trying To Get Over You)
Everythings the way that you left it baby
The broken heart, the tears and the pain
I set your plate on the table each night
Just to keep from going insane
Ive tried whiskey and women
Till it didnt matter
If I knew my right from my wrong
Then I made a decision
To live with your memory
Pretending that you wasnt gone.
Chorus:
I Gave Up On Trying To Get Over You
I done everything that a man can do
To soften the pain when your love was through
I Gave Up On Trying To Get Over You.
All of your clothes I hung
Back in the closet
Next to the bed beside me
I put your pictures up on the wall
Just the way that they used to be
I threw lipstick and perfume
All over the dresser
And cigarette butts on the floor
Its hard to conceive
Anyone could believe
That you dont live here anymore.
Chorus:
I Gave Up On Trying To Get Over You.
