[verse]
It's been the longest winter without you.
I didn't know where to turn to.
See, somehow I can't forget you,
after all that we've been through.

Going, coming, thought I heard a knock.
Who's there? No one.
Thinking that I deserve it.
Now I realise that I really didn't know.
If you didn't notice, you mean ev'rything.
Quickly I'm learning to love again
All I know is I'm gon' be O. K.

[chorus]
Thought I couldn't live without you.
It's gonna hurt when it heals too.
Oh, yeah.It'll all get better in time.
And even though I really love you,
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to.
It'll all get better in time.

[chorus]
I couldn't turn on the T.V.
Without something there to remind me.
Was it all that easy
to just put aside your feelings?

If I'm dreaming, don't wanna laugh.
Hurt my feelings, but that's the path
I believe in,
And I know time will heal it.
If you didn't notice boy you meant ev'rything
Quickly I'm learning to love again.
All I know is I'm gon' be O.K.

[chorus]
Thought I couldn't live without you.
It's gonna hurt when it heals too.
Oh, yeah.It'll all get better in time.
And even though I really love you,
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to.
It'll all get better in time.

[middle]
Since there's no more you and me,
It's time I let you go so I can be free.
And live my life how it should be.
No matter how hard it is, I'll be fine ...without you.
Yes, I will.

[chorus]
Thought I couldn't live without you.
It's gonna hurt when it heals too.
Oh, yeah.It'll all get better in time.
And even though I really love you,
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to.
It'll all get better in time.

Thought I couldn't live without you.
It's gonna hurt when it heals too.
Oh, yeah.It'll all get better in time.
And even though I really love you,
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to.
It'll all get better in time.
