hurting
Or to hear somebody say she ain’t
worth it Lyrics!
You don’t know her like I do
You’ll never understand
You don’t know what we’ve been
through
That girl’s my best friend
And there’s no way you’re gonna
help me
She’s the only one who can
No, you don’t know how much I’ve
got to lose
You don’t know her like I do

15. I can’t forget, I'm drowning in these
memories
It fills my soul with all the little things
And I can’t cope, it’s like a death inside the
family
It’s like she stole my way to breathe
Don’t try to tell me it stops hurting
Don’t try to tell me she ain’t worth it
You don’t know her like I do
You’ll never understand
You don’t know what we’ve been through
That girl’s my best friend
And there’s no way you’re gonna help me
She’s the only one who can
No, you don’t know how much I’ve got to
lose
You don’t know her like I do

16. You don’t know her like I do
You’ll never understand
You don’t know what we’ve been through
That girl’s my best friend
There’s no way you’re gonna help me
She’s the only one who can
No, you don’t know how much I’ve got to
lose
You don’t know her like I do
