Lyrics:
Last night I cried tossed and turned, woke up with dry eyes.
My mind was racing, feet were pacing.
Lord help me please tell me what I have gotten into.
Ran my 3 miles to clear my mind, it always helps me out,
It's my therapy when I'm losing it which is usually.
I'm on a emotional roller coaster.
Loving you ain't nothing healthy.
Loving you was never good for me.
But I can't get off.
It's emotional roller coaster,
Loving you ain't nothing healthy,
Loving you was never good for me, for me,
But I can't get off.
