Lyrics

I’m no different from any other man who lost his wife
Except for the roads we traveled
We worked so long and hard and raised a family of our own
Now, all our “empty-nester” plans have all unraveled
I’m so tired of being angry…
I’m so tired of being alone…
And this lonely time without you still cuts right to the bone

Girl, I’m learning how to live without you
But I know it’s gonna take more time
Yeah, I’m learning how to live without you
But I know it’s gonna take…it’s gonna take more time

Through all our years of loving, we stayed both strong and true
Together through the good times and the bad
Now, I’m thinking ‘bout each year that we shared before you died
And I swear each was the best year ever had
I’m so tired of feeling helpless…
I’m so tired of feeling blue…
But the loneliness that swallowed me still binds me here with you

Girl, I’m learning how to live without you
But I know it’s gonna take more time
Yeah, I’m learning how to live without you
But I know it’s gonna take…it’s gonna take more time

Your laughter is like a song still playing in my mind
My life will never be the same
You filled my years with kindness…you filled my life with love
And if I could, I would do it all again

I’m so tired of being angry…
I’m so tired of being alone…
And this lonely time without you still cuts right to the bone

Still, I’m learning how to live without you
But I know it’s gonna take more time
Yeah, I’m learning how to live without you
But I know it’s gonna take…
It’s gonna take more time
This learning how to live without you
