Ooh..

Finns det nåt mer att säga
Säg finns det nånting mer
Jag var väl ingen ängel

Jag förnekar inte det
Men nu när det är över
Så finns du överallt

Ont, det gör ont, men det går
Det gör ont en stund på natten
Men inget på dan
Du vet att det gör ont
Det gör ont, men ändå
Jag har klarat mig rätt länge
Jag börjar blir van
Och alla omkring, de märker ingenting
Det gör ont
Wooh
Så ont

Här finns så många minnen
Allt vi gjort i våra dar
Fattiga och rika
Det finns för många minnen kvar
Men om jag kunde glömma
Då kunde jag bli fri
Woow

Ont, det gör ont, men det går
Det gör ont en stund på natten
Men inget på dan
Du vet att det gör ont
Det gör ont, men ändå
Jag har klarat mig rätt länge
Jag börjar blir van
Och alla omkring, de märker ingenting
Det gör ont

Det sista jag behöver
Är flera minnen utav dig
Men nu när det är över
Oohh
Då finns du överallt
Woo

Det gör ont en stund på natten
Men inget på dan
Du vet att det gör ont
Det gör ont, men ändå
Jag har klarat mig rätt länge
Jag börjar blir van

Och alla omkring, de märker ingenting
Det gör ont
