Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
More and more, I'm living at last
Day by day, I'm losin' my blues
More and more, I'm forgetting 'bout you.
I wish you knew
How hard I'd tried
To keep you
And I wish you knew
How many tears I cried
The day we said
Goodbye.
Day by day, I'm losin' my blues
More and more, I'm forgettin' 'bout you.
Instrumental ---
I tried everything
In my power
To keep you
By my side.
And the worst day
Of my life
Was the day
That we said goodbye.
Day by day, I'm losin' my blues
More and more, I'm forgettin' 'bout you...
