Like I used to do
Recalling the way I used to live my life.
I'm gonna put your memory away
I am deciding to put the memories of you away.
Show this achin' in my heart a thing or two

And there won't be anything that I can do
And I may not have control over them.
But tonight I'm getting even with the blues
Yet, tonight I am actively overcoming the blues.
Oh, tonight I'm getting even with the blues
