Well, I thought I was over you and that my heart was free I felt like those old memories had finally let me be So I picked up the phone to call a girl that I once knew But when she said hi, well girl, you know I wished that it was you [Chorus] Somethin' in my heart sure makes it hard to love again Somethin' 'bout the way you broke it just won't seem to mend, no Somethin' in my mind tells me your memory has no end Somethin' in my heart sure makes it hard to love again Seems like only yesterday you promised you'd be mine And I sure thought I heard you say "until the end of time" Well, I guess I was wrong to think your love for me was true So here I am all brokenhearted, all because of you [Chorus] Somethin' in my heart sure makes it hard to love again
