Lyrics
I had a feeling I’d run into youIt had to happen I just hoped not this soonAll I wanted was to speak your nameAnd maybe not start breakin down againI hoped you’d see me with somebody newAnd think that I was fineBut now it ain’t no useThere’s nothing left to hide
You said I’d get over itYou said it only takes timeThat soon I’d be on my feet againAnd over my cryin’ i fought every memoryI conquered a few but what I can’t get overIs getting over losing youSo much for being strong and nonchalantBut you’re the only girl I ever wantedAnd if I ever tried to slow you downI was only tryin’ to keep you safe and soundSomeday you’ll want someone to stand by youAnd never let you downWhen that day comes darlin’You’ll know the hurt I’ve found
You said I’d get over itYou said it only takes timeThat soon I’d be on my feet againAnd over my cryin’ i fought every memoryI conquered a few but what I can’t get overIs getting over losing you
Don’t turn awayDarling I pray stay with me nowStay with me now don’t throw awaySomething we’ve paid so dearly for
You said I’d get over itYou said it only takes timeThat soon I’d be on my feet againAnd over my cryin’I swear I fought every memoryI conquered a few but what I can’t get overIs getting over losing youNo what I can’t get overIs getting over losing you
