Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
All I do is think of you
And I can't get you out of my mind
Who could fit Cinderella's shoe
Just like you do? Yeah (do, yeah)
[Pre-chorus]
Too many sleepless nights
Why did I just not think twice before I let you go?
I know I've made mistakes
Steal my heart and how it breaks will I ever know, oh
[Chorus]
Like a hammer to my head
Gonna take my last breath
Oh no, how do I get over you?
Bang bang, shock me, left me for dead
Now I'm black and blue and red
Oh no, this time that time is all for you
[Verse 2]
Our love has reached the dark side
Don't think I'll come out alive, yeah
Now I keep my heart closed
And my blood is turning cold
Yeah
[Pre-chorus]
Too many sleepless nights
Why did I just not think twice before I let you go? (how do I get over you?)
I know I've made mistakes
Steal my heart and how it breaks will I ever know, oh
[Chorus]
Like a hammer to my head
Gonna take my last breath
Oh no, how do I get over you?
Bang bang, shock me, left me for dead
Now I'm black and blue and red
Oh no, this time that time is all for you
[Bridge]
Oh, oh, oh
No, no, no, no, no
Oh, oh, oh
No, no, no, no
[Chorus]
Like a hammer to my head
Gonna take my last breath
Oh no, how do I get over you?
Bang bang, shock me, left me for dead
Now I'm black and blue and red
Oh no, this time that time is all for you
Hammer to my head
Gonna take my last breath
Oh no, how do I get over you?
Bang bang, shock me, left me for dead
Now I'm black and blue and red
Oh no, this time that time is all for you
