Getting over You

Lyrics

Friends who turned lovers
 Went back to being friends
 But nothing's ever over
 Because nothing ever ends
 I thought that it'd be easier
 With calmness to be found
 But I fight the urge to kiss him
 When there's no one else around
 We spin circles in silence
 And fall flat on the floor
 But the stench of desperation
 Is much harder to ignore
 So we both will mind our manners
 And get through another day
 But I struggle still to find
 A better way
 Of getting over you
 Getting over your auburn eyes
 I want so much to linger
 But you're not one for long good-byes
 Letting go of a dream
 The sweet and gentle reverie
 Finding the strength to love you
 As you slowly walk away
 If my heart's just an organ
 Then tell me why does it ache
 When I think on all that's come to pass
 And all of our mistakes
 If these tears don't serve a purpose
 Why do they flow from me like rain
 When I know that they can't
 Wash away the pain
 Of getting over you
 Getting over your auburn eyes
 I want so much to linger
 But you're not one for long good-byes
 Letting go of a dream
 The sweet and gentle reverie
 Finding the strength to love you
 As you slowly walk away
 And even though you're incomparable
 You're still emotionally unavailable
 And I'm not unassailable
 And so it's time to walk away
 ♪
 It's just so hard for me
 Getting over you
 Getting over your auburn eyes
 I want so much to linger
 But you're not one for long good-byes
 Letting go of a dream
 The sweet and gentle reverie
 Finding the strength to love you
 And then slowly walk away
