Everybody's high on consolation
Everybody's trying to tell me what is right for me
My daddy tried to bore me with a sermon
But it's plain to see that they can't comfort me
Sorry, Charlie, for the imposition
I think I've got it, I've got the strength to carry on, yeah
I need a drink and a quick decision
Now it's up to me, ooh, what will be
And he's gone, oh I, oh I
I better learn how to face it, he's gone
Oh I, oh I
I'd pay the devil to replace him, he's gone
Oh my, what went wrong?
Up in the morning, look in the mirror
I'm worn as his toothbrush hanging in the stand
Oh, my face ain't looking any younger
Now it's plain to see love's taken a toll on me
And he's gone, oh I, oh I
I better learn how to face it, he's gone
Oh I, oh I
I'd pay the devil to replace him, he's gone
Oh I, what went wrong?
Think I'll spend eternity in the city, yeah
Let the carbon and monoxide choke my thoughts away
And pretty bodies help dissolve the memories
But they can never be what he was to me
And he's gone, oh I, oh I
I better learn how to face it, he's gone
Oh I, oh I
I'd pay the devil to replace him, he's gone
Oh I, what went wrong?
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Gone, gone, gone away
Baby's gone away
Yeah, gotta learn how to face it
Gone, gone, gone away
Baby's gone away
Yeah, I'd pay the devil to replace him
I'd pay the devil, I'd pay the devil
I'd pay the devil, sure, I'd pay the devil
Gone, gone, gone away
Baby's gone away
Yeah, gotta learn how to face it
Gone, gone, gone away
Baby's gone away
Yeah, I'd pay the devil to replace him
I'd pay the devil, I'd pay the devil
I'd pay the devil, sure, I'd pay the devil
Gone, gone, gone away
Baby's gone away
Yeah, gotta learn how to face it
Gone, gone, gone away
Baby's gone away
Yeah, I'd pay the devil to replace him
I'd pay the devil, I'd pay the devil
I'd pay the devil, sure, I'd pay the devil
