The Morning After

I don't recall
What I was drinking
But after the third one
I was gone
Seventeen
And not really thinking
Just wanted something
Real strong
Room spinnin' round faster and faster
Drownin' in the midnight laughter
But nothin' hits, nothin' hurts
Like the morning after.
I gave in
To him completely
We made plans
And we made love
But this world
Can cut a heart so deeply
And we both gave
'Til we both gave up
An that night I lost everything that mattered
And I thought I couldn't get any sadder
But nothin' hits, nothin' hurts
Like the morning after
The morning after the storm
The morning after all the rain
When you wake up and you realize
That you'll never be the same.
Oh I don't care
What I'm drinking
Just give me something
Real strong
Room spinnin' round faster and faster
Drownin' in the midnight laughter
But nothin' hits, nothin' hurts
Oh nothin' hits, nothin' hurts
Like the morning after
