It's nice of you to say, we can still be friends
But what I need the most, is never gonna be again
Sure I always knew we were worlds apart
But that don't help the sadness in my heart
It's gonna take a long time
To get you off my mind
Love like yours is hard to find
You'll never be mine
It's gonna take a long time

Oh, when we were together
Life was so complete an' then you met that girl
An' I could not compete
Oh, you are like a magnet with your ways
An' that's what I remember everyday
It's gonna take a long time
To get you off of my mind
Love like yours is hard to find
You'll never be mine
It's gonna take a long time

Love is so complex, that's why I'm upset
'Cause I'm no good for you but still I can't forget
You can always wake the beast in me
That's the thing that never lets me be
It's gonna take a long time
To get you off of my mind
Love like yours is hard to find
You'll never be mine
It's gonna take a long time
