Sara Bareilles - Gonna Get Over You

Goodbye
Should be saying that to you by now, shouldn’t I
Laying down a law that I live by
Well, maybe next time

I’ve got a thick tongue
Brimming with the words that go unsung
I simmer, then I burn for someone
The wrong one

And I tell myself to let the rest
And my heart will rest in someone else’s hand
My ‘Why not me?’ philosophy began
And I said

Ooh, how am I gonna get over you
I’ll be alright
Just not tonight
But someday
Oh, I wish you want me to stay
I’ll be alright
Just not tonight
But someday

Maybe it’s a vicious little world that could slay me
Keep me while I’m hurting
You make me hang from your hands

But no more
I won’t beg to buy a shot at your back door
I’m aching at the thought of you
What for?
That’s not me anymore And I’m not the girl that I intend to be
But I dare you, darling, just you wait and see
But this time not for you
Just for me
I said

Ooh, how am I gonna get over you
I’ll be alright
Just not tonight
But someday
Oh, I wish you want me to stay
I’ll be alright
Just not tonight
But someday

Say it’s coming soon
Someday without you
All I can do is get me past the ghost of you

Wave goodbye to me
I won’t say I’m sorry
I’ll be alright
Once I find the other side of someday

Oh, oh
Woah, oh
Woah
Oh, oh, oh
Woah
Woah, oh
Woah
Oh, oh, oh

Ooh, how am I gonna get over you
I’ll be alright
Just not tonight
But someday
Oh, I wish you want me to stay
I’ll be alright
Just not tonight
But someday
