[Verse 1]
I wish you'd go away and leave me alone
Let me live my life the way I planned
I can't be in love, I'm where I belong
You're not part of me, we could never be again
[Chorus]
But there you are when I close my eyes
You're staring at me, you know I'm telling lies
But there you are when I close my eyes
No matter how hard I try, there you are when I close my eyes
[Verse 2]
Sometimes I go to town when the sun goes down
But you always know just when to come around
Though it's over now, I want you to know
What you've done to me 'cause your memory won't let go
[Chorus]
And there you are when I close my eyes
You're staring at me, you know I'm telling lies
But there you are when I close my eyes
No matter how hard I try, there you are when I close my eyes
[Outro]
No matter how hard I try, there you are when I close my eyes
