I gave up cigarettes, haven't had to light one yet. It's been a year sense I stopped. Same goes for alcohol. I don't touch the stuff at all. I used to drink till I dropped. [CHORUS:] But those were tough this is easy, and it feels So good to say. Forgetting you is not that hard to do For I've done it a thousand times a day. Oh I've done it a Thousand times a day.

But those were tough this is easy, and I'm All right I'm ok. Forgetting (CHORUS:) I've given you up for good, just like I said I would. Oh the night you walked away. But that was tough this is easy, ( CHORUS:)
