Shake the Tree

There was a time I used to say
Living alone was the better way
No reason to hurt, no reason to lie
Nobody searching for a compromise

(So where did my independence go?)
Darling since you been way
(I'm feeling a feeling I don't know)
And I've gotta say

That i can't get you out of my head
You're an aftertaste, a ghost in my bed
I can't get you out of my head
Can't get over you

You wanted your space, you wanted out
You shook me up then you shook me down
I'm losing the plot, I'm out to lunch
Since you hit me with that sucker punch

(Situation's out of my control)
And it's only down to you
(I didn't want to be playing out this role)
But what can I do?

'Cause I can't get you out of my head
Every single day I live thru it again
I can't get you out of my head
Can't get over you, I can't get over you

So where are the healing hands of time?
Where is the piece I tought I'd find?
Just like I said
I can't get you out of my head

(So where did my independence go?)
Darling since you been way
(I'm feeling a feeling I don't know)
And I've gotta say

That i can't get you out of my head
You're an aftertaste, a ghost in my bed
I can't get you out of my head
Can't get over you

'Cause I can't get you out of my head
Every single day I live thru it again
I can't get you out of my head
Can't get over you, I can't get over you
