I don't know how I'll get her off my mind
But give me time and I'll think of something
I can't say today that I'm alright
But by tonight I'll think of something.

I'll find so many things to do
That I won't have the time to think of her
And then if she's still on my mind
I'll try to drink enough to drown the hurt
And if that don't work I'll think of something.

Where do I go for love that I still need
Now that I'm free I'll think of something
And if someday by accident we meet
And I can't speak I'll think of something.

If I can't say a word to her
I'll blame it on this lump that's in my throat
And standing there what will I do
To hide my love enough that it won't show
I don't know but I'll think of something.

Well, I don't know.

I don't know how I'll get her off my mind
But give me time and I'll think of something...
