I'm trapped in a hospital room That hospital room is inside my head Doctors are tryin' to mend the stitches on my broken heart Lord, get me out of this goddamn bed I fell in love with a woman Sweetest girl I've ever seen I tried to show her the better side of myself Give her the best part of me This one thing can give me back my freedom I just wanna hear you say my name It was short-lived love Runnin' down a highway, hittin' all the back roads Hopin' that the rain came down on a Sunday Stay a little longer, I don't wanna wondеr If I'm gonna see you next weekend Now your memory's all I got It was short-livеd love ♪ I've tried everything to forget about you Mixed more gin with tonic than an average man should Powdered my brain with the harshest of chemicals Tried to disappear for the greater good There's something 'bout the way I look at you There's something 'bout the way you look at me I can't seem to recreate that with another woman That's enough to tell me I ain't ready to set you free It was short-lived love Runnin' down a highway, hittin' all the back roads Hopin' that the rain came down on a Sunday Stay a little longer, I don't wanna wonder If I'm gonna see you next weekend Now your memory's all I got Now your memory's all I got It was short-lived love Short-lived love
