Whenever I go out

Anywhere in town

I look for a crowd

Where you're not hangin' 'round

Say that I won't give

Your memory any room

But every time I do



Just when I think I can

Take another's hand

Get on with my life

Won't look back again

Promise I won't keep

Comparin' them to you

But every time I do



Every time I do, I wish I didn't

Try to tell myself, but I just don't listen

It's what he can't have back he never learns his lesson

I say I'll forget her

Oh, but I know better

Don't I know by now we don't belong together

Shouldn't get the blues when I think of you

But every time I do



When I'm drivin' home

You'd think that I'd have learned

Keep both hands on the wheel

Don't even make that turn

Swear that I won't go

Down Maple Avenue

But every time I do



Every time I do, I wish I didn't

Try to tell myself, but I just don't listen

It's a fool who just goes on missin'

What he can't have back he never learns his lesson

I say I'll forget her

Oh, but I know better

Don't I know by now we don't belong together

Shouldn't get the blues when I think of you

But every time I do



No, I Shouldn't get the blues when I think of you

But every time I do
