[Verse 1]

Card games and heart games

I said, "Let's play," I should know better

My boy ain't my boy

But I call him that 'cause it feels better

Court case last Monday

But he buss trial so I feel better

Painkillers and codeine

I got stomach cramps under my sweater

Dark words from his dark mind

Now there's dark stains under my eyes

I'm scared when I look at him

And I don't know why I'm surprised

Silk sheets and I'm cryin' in 'em

And I'm stayin' here when I should go

I'm scared if I leave now

I'll never come back so I sip slow, huh


[Pre-Chorus]

Say somethin' nice to me, uh

Say somethin' nice to mе, uh

I nod and I agree

You get so mad if I disagree

So he invited mе

To sit here silently

He can't stand the sight of me

He used to get excited but now


[Chorus]

Uh, the thrill is gone, thrill is gone, thrill is gone, huh

The thrill is gone, thrill is gone, the thrill is over

I know it's so, I'm more alone when I'm on his shoulder

The thrill is gone, thrill is gone, thrill is gone

The thrill is gone, thrill is gone, thrill is gone, huh

He's a Leo sun, a Leo moon, and a Leo risin'

Somethin' dies in his eyes when I find them

The thrill is gone, thrill is gone

The thrill is gone


[Verse 2]

I can't sleep in the same bed as you, somethin' just doesn't feel right

When you fall asleep, I leave the room as you're closin' your eyes

I shut the door behind me quickly as I get in my car

But then the second I leave you, I wish I was where you are


[Pre-Chorus]

(Say) Say somethin' nice to me

(Say) Say somethin' nice to me

(Say) Say somethin' nice to me, please say

(Oh, won't you say, oh, won't you say, oh, won't you say)


[Chorus]

Uh, the thrill is gone, thrill is gone, thrill is gone, huh

The thrill is gone, thrill is gone, the thrill is over

I know it's so, I'm more alone when I'm on his shoulder

The thrill is gone, thrill is gone, thrill is gone (Hey)


[Bridge]

Gotta get on the road now, hey

Gotta shake a little dust off, hey

Gotta get up, walk away

Get on the plane now, say

I'll leave him in the past, I pray

I know it's done, it's sad to say

But the thrill is gone, it's gone away (Hey)


[Chorus]

Uh, the thrill is gone, thrill is gone, thrill is gone, huh

The thrill is gone, thrill is gone, the thrill is over

I know it's so, I'm more alone when I'm on his shoulder

(Ah, woah) The thrill is gone, thrill is gone, thrill is gone

The thrill is gone, thrill is gone, thrill is gone, huh (Hey)

He's a Leo sun, a Leo moon, and a Leo risin' (Oh, oh, hey)

Somethin' dies in his eyes when I find them (Ooh)

The thrill is gone, thrill is gone

The thrill is gone
