Lyrics

It Just Won't Quit

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

And I never really sleep anymore,

And I always get those dangerous dreams

And I never get a minute of peace,

And I gotta wonder what it means

And I gotta wonder what it means

Maybe it's nothing and I'm under the weather

Maybe it's just one of those bugs going round

Maybe I'm under a spell and it's magic

Maybe there's a witch doctor with an office in town

Oh is this a blessing or is it a curse?

Does it get any better? Can it get any worse?

Will it go on forever or is it over tonight?

Does it come with the darkness? Does it bring out the

light?

Is it richer than diamonds or just a little cheaper than

spit?

I don't know what it is

I don't know what it is but it just won't quit

I don't know what it is but it just won't quit

I don't know what it is but it just won't quit

I don't know what it is but it just won't quit

And there used to be such an easy way of living

And there used to be every hope in the world

And I used to get everything that I went after

But there never used to be this girl,

But there never used to be this girl

Maybe I'm crazy and I'm losing my senses

Maybe I'm possessed by a spirit or such

Maybe I'm desperate and I've got no defenses

Can you get me a prescription for that one perfect touch?

Oh is this a blessing or is it a curse?

Does it get any better? Can it get any worse?

Will it go on forever or is it over tonight?

Does it come with the darkness? Does it bring out the

light?

It's a stairway to heaven or a subway going down to the

pits

Is it some kind of love?

I don't know what it is but it just won't quit

I don't know what it is but it just won't quit

I don't know what it is but it just won't quit

I don't know what it is but it just won't quit

I don't know what it is

I don't know what it is but it just won't quit

There was a time when nothing ever really mattered

There was a time when there was nothing I didn't know

There was a time when I knew just what I was living for

There was a time and the time was so long ago

There was a time and the time was so long ago

And I never really sleep anymore
