Ooh

Got myself a new home in a fine neighborhood
The sun's always shinin' and life is good
Now, it's time to forget you
Like I said I would
Mmm, like I said I would

I'm takin' it easy in my backyard
I think I'll take an evening stroll down East Boulevard
And I'll try to forget you
Shouldn't be that hard
No, shouldn't be that hard 'cause

I said I'll be happy somewhere else
But the miles don't save me from myself

Last thing I'll do is pick up the phone
Tell you "I'm sorry"; say "I'm comin' home"
'Cause I've tried to forget you
Oh, but you're in my bones
Yeah, you're in my bones

Ooh
Ooh

And I've tried; yes, I've tried, oh

Well, I said I'll be happy somewhere else
But the miles don't save me from myself

Got a new life in a fine neighborhood
A place to call my own
Like you said I should
And I'm tryin' to forget you
As if I ever could
As if I ever could

And I try, try to forget you
Like I said I would
As if I ever could
