## Lyrics
[verse]
I scrubbed my hands and I scrubbed 'em twice
Tryin' to wash away the memory of your eyes
But no matter how hard I try and try
Your memory just won't say goodbye

[chorus]
Nothin's gonna wash you away
Nothin's gonna make you stay gone
Nothin' in this whole wide world
Can clean away the love I had for you, girl

[verse]
I washed my face until the water ran cold
Tryin' to forget the stories that we told
But every time I look up in the glass
I see your face lookin' back at last

[chorus]
Nothin's gonna wash you away
Nothin's gonna make you stay gone
Nothin' in this whole wide world
Can clean away the love I had for you, girl

[bridge]
Maybe there's no cleaner strong enough
Maybe some love's just too tough
So I'll stop scrubbin', let it be
Guess your memory's here to stay with me

[chorus]
Nothin's gonna wash you away
Nothin's gonna make you stay gone
Nothin' in this whole wide world
Can clean away the love I had for you, girl
