Lyrics
Verse 1
I swear the night that you left me
You went straight to my head
Where you left me with memories
Of all the things that you said
I never treated you right
Our love was just a waste of time
All those years you spent with me
Now gone from the prime of your life
Chorus
Memories of you, you got me thinking
Girl thinking of you, feels like I’m drinking
What I deserve to be served will just come to mind
You got me drunk all the time
The sound of your voice, I keep hearing
My head full of noise, it keeps appearing
Over and over like one tall bottom less drink
Girl you’ve given me too much to think
Verse 2
I jumped into my car and turned up the radio
Then the song that came on, it was your favourite I know
Now you’re dancing in my head, in my ear you sang along
My conscience won’t let go, of everything I’ve done wrong
Chorus
Memories of you, you got me thinking
Girl thinking of you, feels like I’m drinking
What I deserve to be served will just come to mind
You got me drunk all the time
The sound of your voice, I keep hearing
My head full of noise, it keeps appearing
Over and over like one tall bottom less drink
Girl you’ve given me too much to think
Bridge
All the time with you that I recall, makes me feel like I’m drinking alcohol
Like a drowning man with a drink in his hand, I’m all alone in crazy land
Chorus
Memories of you, you got me thinking
Girl thinking of you, feels like I’m drinking
What I deserve to be served will just come to mind
You got me drunk all the time
The sound of your voice, I keep hearing
My head full of noise, it keeps appearing
Over and over like one tall bottom less drink
Girl you’ve given me too much to think
Girl you’ve given me
Just given me
Too much
Too much to think
I swear the night that you left me
You went straight to my head
Where you left me with memories
Of all the things that you said
I never treated you right
Our love was just a waste of time
All those years you spent with me
Now gone from the prime of your life
Chorus
Memories of you, you got me thinking
Girl thinking of you, feels like I’m drinking
What I deserve to be served will just come to mind
You got me drunk all the time
The sound of your voice, I keep hearing
My head full of noise, it keeps appearing
Over and over like one tall bottom less drink
Girl you’ve given me too much to think
Verse 2
I jumped into my car and turned up the radio
Then the song that came on, it was your favourite I know
Now you’re dancing in my head, in my ear you sang along
My conscience won’t let go, of everything I’ve done wrong
Chorus
Memories of you, you got me thinking
Girl thinking of you, feels like I’m drinking
What I deserve to be served will just come to mind
You got me drunk all the time
The sound of your voice, I keep hearing
My head full of noise, it keeps appearing
Over and over like one tall bottom less drink
Girl you’ve given me too much to think
Bridge
All the time with you that I recall, makes me feel like I’m drinking alcohol
Like a drowning man with a drink in his hand, I’m all alone in crazy land
Chorus
Memories of you, you got me thinking
Girl thinking of you, feels like I’m drinking
What I deserve to be served will just come to mind
You got me drunk all the time
The sound of your voice, I keep hearing
My head full of noise, it keeps appearing
Over and over like one tall bottom less drink
Girl you’ve given me too much to think
Girl you’ve given me
Just given me
Too much
Too much to think
