Getting over You

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
